Comments/description: Can shows a graceful figure skater in full view on one side below the Olympic Commemorative text, with the same image faintly ghosted on two others. Can is very clean and humidity-free, though it does have a sharp puncture just below the skaters outstretched arm. There is also a significant canning or handling ding at the lower right side. Note that the gold on this can is a duller, brushed metallic. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

Condition

Cans may have minor canning and handling dings at the rims that are not evident in photos. Please review photos carefully for these subtle indents. Larger dings that do not show and those in other locations will be noted in the item description.
