Condition Excellent condition with no cracks, chips, dents or dings. This is an impressive, beautiful, shiny pen, in a classy color scheme. The barrel has only light microscratching. The gold end piece has brassing. The cap looks really beautiful. It has some microscratching as well as wear along the left side of the clip, and towards the top of the cap to the left of the clip (see photo below). Still, it is very shiny and quite lovely, with a nice pattern of twelve lines alternating with eight lines and empty spaces. The clip and white dot look good. The imprints are clear.
