Nib Medium 10k nib made in USA. It writes smoothly and has a large amount of tipping material. The nib collar says X for extra-fine, however we judge the nib to be a medium so it must have been replaced at one point.
Condition Excellent condition. Only minor handwear and microscratching on the barrel. No bite marks, or posting or capping marks. The cap looks great, no dings or dents. The clip has a bit of brassing/plating wear near the opening, but is generally in great shape. No cracks, dents, dings, or chips. The imprints are clear.
