Hello,

This is a very tricky question to answer. The stylus tip is clearly intact, but we can’t tell anything about the suspension or how it’ll sound in general use.
If you’re wondering if it’s clean enough, well there aren’t any huge fluff or dust deposits visible so perhaps it’s ok. But again it’s not easy to tell anything further.

You’ll have to bite the bullet and fit it to a Beogram to see how it plays. Perhaps not with your most valuable record.

Forgive me for stating the obvious but there’s not much else to say.

Julian
