Description from Nathaniel

Parker factory stub nibs are pretty rare. Yet, we are really excited to showcase this one on a nearly mint Parker Deluxe Challenger. The point on this 14k gold nib is 1mm wide. You will write a smooth line with nice variation when you find the sweet spot. There is a high angle of attack to get the most out of the nib. Brilliant green flake radiate light from the black background of the cap and barrel. Our vintage pen has been fully restored with a new ink sac. Its matching vintage pencil also remains in good working order. The only significant flaw on our Parker Deluxe Challenger is a touch of brassing near the top of the pocket clip.
