It looks like the checkering may have been recut lightly. The mullering was recut and not done as finely as original Parker Bros. did it.
That said, I don't see anything wrong with it.... at least it wasn't butchered like we see some of the ones that were recut.
There's nothing wrong with the top lever or the engraving.... we're just not looking squarely down at it.
