Pelikan M500 Sea Green w/ Gold Cap

[Susan3141]

For sale is a beautiful and unusual Pelikan M500 Sea Green. The pen's cap and piston knob are gold and the pen itself is a vibrant green stripe. It has a 14k broad, very stubbish, wet nib. Purchased from Rick Propas originally. Piston works great. Celluloid has marks from where the cap screws onto the barrel and some divots (see photos). After taking photos for a prospective buyer, I realized the pen is probably user grade. I have decreased the price accordingly. It's still a beautiful pen.

This is a fairly uncommon Pelikan. Asking $375 (OBO) shipping included (CONUS). International buyers would need to pay shipping and any taxes/customs fees.

Shouldn't it just be a 500, without the M? To my knowledge, the M series (denoting a fountain pen writing system) is a modern notation.

[Susan3141]

Yes. Probably. I don't know. I got it from Rick Propas. I don't think I would have made up the M, but I might have. Just buy it, okay???? :)

Oh, how I would if I had the money! It is one of my grail pens!

[tandaina]

Me too. Sadly, no money.

[carlos.q]

Me three!!!

[fountainpenkid]

Why don't we each own a third of it? We'd each pay 133 and get it for 1/3 of the year! ;) ;)

Re-posting. Potential buyer decided not to purchase.

Lowered price significantly.
