Item # S071221-01

Description:	Presidential Premier FP
Price:	US $4000

Here is the scarce Presidential Premier FP in solid 18K. This pen is perfect for the discriminating collector who insists on getting one of the more unique and precious models in the 75 family.

This is one heavy pen whose cap and barrel weigh a total of 42.6 grams (1.505 ounces). I do believe this is the heaviest of all the solid gold models in the Parker 75 family.

In the last year Parker sold this pen, the list price according to a field sales document was US $6,250. That was at a time when gold sold for around $350 per ounce. Recently gold hit a new all-time high of $900 so if Parker could sell this pen its list price would likely exceed $11,000. Indeed the solid 18K Esparto Duofold has a listed price over $13,000!

Here you can see the hallmarks that assert the gold content (eagle's head) and the manufacturer's identity.

The condition is excellent but as this is 18K gold, there are the usual fine scratches on the surface. Nib is 18K French and you can choose any available size I have: Fine, Broad, and exotics. Send me email to inquire about available sizes.
