Condition Excellent condition with no cracks. This is a beautiful, slim pen with shiny and ornate gold overlay on dark black hard rubber. The gold overlay on the barrel looks excellent with just some light microscratching. The end piece of the barrel has enough plating wear that it covers most of the imprint. There are also some small dings. The gold overlay on the cap looks excellent. There is a small amount of surface wear on the top of the cap and plating wear along the top edge. A few letters of the barrel-end imprint are visible.
