Description;

This is an excellent example of the famous Parker 61 Presidential Propelling Pencil from the top range of the Parker line. It is finished in solid gold in the Waterdrop pattern with hallmarks to the clip, cap and barrel. It was made in the UK around 1971.

The pencil is in near mint condition with no dings or dents anywhere save one small mark near the nozzle.. 

This is a valuable pen because of the gold content. The complete pen weighs 25.3g but if I remove the lead mechanism, the inner brass cap liner and the clip screw you are left with 11.2g, Take off another 0.5g for the thin plastic barrel liner and you are left with about 10.7g of 9ct gold which is worth over £440 at current scrap prices. It would be a shame to scrap it but it definitely represents an investment for the future. You will not lose money on this one!!

• Postage in the UK is free
