There are some tarnished spots that will not polish, most notably on the sides of the case where the chains connect. There is some slight velvet loss on the case, but surprisingly not much considering the age and use.
Cleaning and Care
Hand polish silver with polishing cloth. Since it is not real silver but a nickle alloy, it will not polish to a high shine.
