Condition
|
The pen is in very nice used condition with no cracks or chips, only signs of light use. There's a dark reddish area near the end of the barrel that extends to the blind cap, and it looks as though it might have been burned there, not it's not very noticeable. The imprint is good and readable. The gold plated trim is good with no brassing except for the high points on the clip. The two jewels are diffrent -- the cap jewel is striped and the barrel jewel is black. |
