What size nib does this pen take?

What size nib does this pen take?
Measured over the feeder (where it goes into the section): 5.5 mm, meaning it has a feeder of approx 5 / 5.1 mm
Measured over the 'wings' (the widest part of the nib) with the nib that is actually mounted it is approx 7 mm, this depends of course on the model detail of the nib you'd want to use..

You messaged the wrong person and the original post is 25 dollars for the pen posted anywhere in the world.

That's bizarre. On my phone I can see the price on my iPod I can only see the '+$12' bit.

Do you ever come across Anglo Special pens? They are smallish lever fillers from the 1940/ 50's
