Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. This is a shiny pen in a deep, dark and shiny color with a glinty gold cap. The section has moderate to heavy scratching all around the feed. The barrel has some wear on the lower half near the very end of the barrel. The cap has moderate microscratching all over. There are some light dots of tarnish between a few of the converging lines, and we gave it a bit more polishing after photographs were take and it looks better. The clip has some light scratching and a small strip of brassing at the top. The imprints are readable.
