This is a Showa-retro platinum fountain pen. Fine nib, 18K Although it has a retro appearance, I purchased it about two years ago. I saw it at a fountain pen specialty store and bought it to use with my planner. As you can see in the photo of the nib, there are traces of black ink. (It remained even after soaking in cleaning solution) I don't have a photo of the pen when I bought it, but because of this, I've listed it as "no noticeable scratches or stains." There is no peeling on the exterior. As this is 18K, I'm hesitant to sell it. Please understand that I cannot offer a discount. However, I will consider a discount only if you purchase it together with other fountain pens or desk pens I have listed. #PlatinumFountainPen #Retro
