Nib FLEXIBLE FINE gold Conklin Toledo #2 nib. See our writing sample below.
Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. The cap and barrel have light wear. The material on the barrel has deepened to more of a caramel brown than cream; the cap is only slightly discolored. The barrel has light marks caused by the cap lip and more noticeable scratching and bite marks near the end. The little lever looks great. The two gold cap bands have brassing along the edges. The clip has small splotches of brassing, and quite a bit of tiny denting near the top. This is likely related to the bite marks at the top of the cap. The imprints are clear.
