Description;

This is one of the very popular Sheaffer Targa fountain pens made in the USA around 1985. It is finished in Rolled Gold in a Barleycorn pattern. Sheaffer's pattern number for this finish is 1009.

It is in very good condition apart from some light pitting to the rolled gold finish.

The nib is a wonderful smooth medium. This pen would make a great daily writer but probably would not be suitable as a gift because of the pitting.
