scratches or dings within the main viewing area

Besides that I don't see any issues like scratches or abrasions

1840s Sealed 1/4 Daguerreotype Bearded Man, Tinted Tablecloth, Honeycomb Mat full plate scratches or dings within theMid 1840s daguereotype of a man, seated at a small table with hand tinted tablecloth. There is an object on there but I can't tell for sure what it is.. hat or book maybe something else. Dag has its original seals intact and the underside of the glass is dirty, but the plate is undamaged. The case is also in excellent antique condition with light leather wear, but complete with both of its clasps and no repairs done to it. There is no label inside.
