It is fitted with a USA-made 14K #66 Medium nib and has been completely disassembled, ultrasonically cleaned, and carefully reassembled. The pen now writes beautifully and is accompanied by its original inner and outer boxes, literature, and nib removal tool, making this set a true time capsule!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sterling silver barrel and cap have been polished to restore their bright, lustrous finish, and the pen displays wonderfully. This example shows the key early-production features that place it in the early 1970s or earlier: flat tassies, a metal converter, a section with an angle indicator but no “0” marking, the \"#66\" nib\/feed imprint, the “Made in USA” designation, and the earlier cap band imprint. The flat tassies and angle indicator style were phased out around 1970, making this a desirable and collectible configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cap and barrel remain in exceptional condition, free of dings, dents, or repairs, with the slip cap securing snugly to the barrel. The cap lip is crisply stamped, “PARKER STERLING SILVER [Parker logo] MADE IN U.S.A.” There are no monograms or personalizations. Measuring 5 1\/8\" when capped and 5 5\/8\" posted, the pen has excellent balance in the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFitted with a Parker 14K gold #66 Medium nib stamped “PARKER 14K POINT USA,” the tip measures approximately .63mm when checked with digital calipers. The back of the feed also bears the “66” marking for medium point. The factory Parker ink converter is present and functions perfectly, having been tested with water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe presentation is completed by the original dark blue velvet-lined inner box, free from ink stains, along with the outer box, literature, and nib removal tool. Altogether, this Parker 75 Crosshatch\/Cisele fountain pen is an exceptionally well-preserved example—both clean and elegant—and I would confidently grade it in Excellent condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique Digger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48378241843406,"sku":"xck1789854362810","price":176.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/2416\/6862\/files\/c1970-parker-75-sterling-silver-crosshatch-grid-pattern-66-nib-fountain-pen-with_1.jpg?v=1789854367","url":"https:\/\/coverallseamw.shop\/products\/c1970-parker-75-sterling-silver-crosshatch-grid-pattern-66-nib-fountain-pen-with-boxespapers","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
