Nib BROAD Parker England #5 14k gold nib is in excellent condition, smooth with excellent tipping material. It has alittle flex to it. See writing sample below.
Condition Very nice condition. There are two short hairline cracks on the section near the nib, but they appear to be surface cracks only, and do not penetrate to the other side as far as we can tell. No chips, dings, dents, or personalization. Some brassing on the edges and corners of the trim. There's some lesser scratching and handwear on the cap and barrel. No corrosion on the cover of the filling system. The imprint is slightly worn around the edges, but is clear and readable. The pen has been cleaned and tested and it's working well.
