Condition Signs of very light use only on the pen body. A few tiny pin-sized marks on the cap, but no dents or dings, and just very light microscratches. The pencil looks perfect, though you see some wear on the plated tube when you pull off the cap, the old eraser doesn't seem to have ever been used.
The fine curduroy (?) box is in excellent condition, just a little dirty but much better than you usually see.
