NSA National Security Agency / National Cryptologic Museum Mug VG+

Description

NSA National Security Agency / National Cryptologic Museum Mug VG+.
This is for a color changing coffee mug purchased in the 1990s from the NSA National Cryptologic Museum in Fort Meade, Maryland. This mug has never been used that I can recall (I don’t drink coffee or use any of my collector mugs).
From the insert (pictured and included): “This mug uses disappearing ink to reveal the true meaning of the cryptologic cipher. To solve this cipher system and write your own messages see the cipher key on the reverse side of this card…Microwave use: remove mug when color change occurs, do not overheat. NOTE: Gold lipped must are microwaveable.”
I would describe the condition as used (no original box I recall it came it) and it has minor production or storage marks on the bottom (see pictures). The gold lip has some wear – not sure if it was manufactured that way but you can see
this if you look very very closely (again see pictures). Overall this is in Very Good or better condition. If you need more pictures or higher resolution sent directly to you please let me know as the pictures are part of the description.
This mug is heavy (13.1 oz empty) and Priority Mail shipping is included in the price (due to weight I can't ship First Class. This will be -10 or so of the cost hence the original Buy It Now price....
However, if you don't think I priced it right please make me a reasonable offer and I'll consider it!
I’m selling most of my mugs as I never use them (CIA 50
th
anniversary from same period already sold) and I also have some train mugs coming up for ebay. These are from my personal collection and have been well cared for and rarely used. This is a neat very good looking mug!
