Nib FINE gold Hundred Year Pen nib is smooth with great tipping material. It's not quite fully flexible, but it's more than what we generally call semi-flex, with easy line variation from fine or extra fine to a nice broad, and a double broad with just a little pressure. See our writing sample below.
Condition Excellent condition. No cracks ro chips, dings or dents, or personalization. There's some light scratching and some small marks on the cap and barrel. There's light microscratching on the trim and some very minor plating wear on the very edges of the clip. The imprint is very deep and crisp. The pen is fully restored and working well.
