Nib FINE gold nib. Smooth with uniform tipping material.
Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, or noticeable dents. This is an elegant gray, shiny pen with a golden cap that is graceful and sophisticated. The section hood has the typical light to moderate scratching from the cap. There is a small (1/16" long) hairline crack at the bottom of the nib opening, but this should not affect the pen's function. The cap has lots of microscratches along with one small (about 1/8" wide) dent, to the right of the clip. There is some brassing near the cap's lip. The clip has brassing and some plating wear along the sides. The blue diamond is missing most of the paint. The clip ring and pearlescent jewel look great. The barrel has light scratching. No large marks or scratches, or cracks or chips. Both the barrel imprint and cap imprint are clear.
