Nib Marked The Moore Pen 2. Almost fully flexible, it puts down lines from fine to double-broad in width. There's a short crack off the breather hole. Good tipping material visible. See writing sample.
Condition Superior condition with excellent, even color. No cracks or serious scratches, just microscratching and signs of light use. The pearl portions have a great color, with just a couple of small spots over the line into amber. The gold-plated cap band is in excellent condition, no brassing. No cracks, chips, dents, or dings, or personalization. Imprint is good, just a bit shallower in the latter half of it. The pen has been tested and it writes extremely well.
