Condition Excellent condition with no cracks or dents. This is a short pen with gorgeous green marbling that stands out. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip and light to moderate scratching. There is a small divot just below the cap lip. A little to the left and below that chip are a cluster of tiny scratch lines. The lever has some scratches and a bit of plating wear and pitting up at the top. The cap has a surface mark to the left of the ball of the clip. It has a cluster of scratch marks at the very top of the cap near the point. The cap band is beautiful. The clip also looks nice with just a few little marks. The imprints are clear.
