Comments/description: IRTP version. No egregious marks on this can, it is about as smooth and clean as one can expect given the wear that silver crowntainers are usually subject to. This can has only slight blemishes and looks great on display despite some light ink coverage from the factory. A fine example. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.
