Color Reddish-orange marbling with pearlescence. Ancoras usually have sterling trim but this trim is not marked and is very shiny, perhaps rhodium plated.
Nib MEDIUM 18k 1919 nib, masked with a silver colored metal. The Ancora nibs (actually made by Ancora) are famous for their quality.
Condition Excellent + condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a bright, bold, shiny pen with some pearlescence and that is eye-catching. Although it is very difficult to see scratches due to the coloration and patterning, there are some small marks on the cap and barrel. The bright silver colored trim pieces look great, including the 3/8" band mounted under the top of the clip. There are no imprints.
