Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. The barrel has moderate scratching, and there's heavy scratching on the blind cap. The top of the cap has some unevenness where the celluloid joins, but no real cracks or chips there. The cap band is nice and shiny and has just some small scratches. The little clip has brassing and plating wear around the edges, and the top face of the clip has a strange texture, lots of very small marks give it a matte finish. The white dot is slightly yellowed. The imprints are nice and clear.
