Nib FINE 14k two-toned nib, verging on the extra fine. Some of the masking has been polished away. It is smooth and writes well. The feed has a faint A on it which identifies it as "account" for firm, fine nibs.
Condition Excellent condition. Light to moderate scratching on the cap and barrel. The barrel transparency is fantastic with no ambering on the bands. The barrel imprints are legible. The cap band looks good, with no obvious brassing. The clip has brassing on the sides and around the arrow tip. No cracks, chips, or dents. It's fully restored and working well.
