Condition Excellent condition. Only a few small marks on the sterling, and no personalization. No cracks or chips or dents. There's some patina, wear, and small scratches in the sterling filigree, but no dents apparent. The hard rubber has discolored slightly. The imprint in the hard rubber is very clear and readable. No personalization or engraving, though there is a smooth part of the filigree designed for engraving. It's quite beautiful despite the a few small marks, and working very well. The nib is fantastic.
