Nib FINE gold Conklin Endura nib.
Condition Excellent condition with no cracks. This is a small, shiny pen, in a stunning dark blue color with black marbling. There is some darkening of the blue near the top of the cap. The barrel has marks caused by the cap lip and moderate scratching. Some of the marks, particularly at the end of the barrel are small and deep polished out tooth marks. The cap mostly looks smooth and lovely but there are just a few small raised scratch marks on it. All four thin red bands are intact though they have small scratches and marks that are nearly invisible to the naked eye. The cap band has plating wear along both edges and light microscratching. The mini-lever has plating wear. The housing for the ring top on top of the cap and the ring itself look excellent with just some polishing marks and a thin layer of plating wear. The imprints are clear.
