Condition Superior condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a large-sized, shiny pen, in a beautiful jade green color. The color is very consistent, and really strong. A lot of times when we see this pen, there are significant differences in barrel vs. cap color, or one part has turned dark, or faded, or yellowed, but this pen has really strong, beautifully green color. There is light scratching and handwear on the cap and barrel. The end of the barrel has some slight darkening, as well as some scuffing. There are some light marks from the cap lip on the barrel. The lever has some brassing near the pivot end. The cap band has light scratching, and some of the edges show the beginning of brassing. The clip has some plating wear on the ball end. The dot at the top of the cap is excellent. The imprints are clear.
