This is a shiny dark green pen with lots of contrasting gold trim (a long clip, substantial cone, the standard clicker, and a rolled cap band). The cap and barrel have light microscratching. The clip and cone have some microscratching with polishing marks on the clip. The cap band and clicker have light microscratching. The imprint is clear.
