Condition
|
The pen is in very nice condition, with no dents, scratches or dings. The gold plating is a little thin in spots, so it has a silver-y tone. The black in the grooves is good, though it is a little weak in some places. There is some brassing on the tip of the clip and the edges of the tassies. There is corrosion and wear on the gold plated chrome/steel reference ring and some of the typical pitting/staining. The pen is in beautiful working condition. |
