I was not sure where to put this, but since the the question is due to restoration (although this looks to be a relatively modern pen) I put it here.
In my most recent batch of el cheapo lottery buys, one of the pens was this very thin maroon pen with gold colored trim. There are no identifying markings anywhere on the pen. The nib is steel, gold washed, with "IRIDIUM POINT" stampted on it. The pen is metal. When I unscrewed the section, there was no fill mechanism present. I was sure that I would find that it took some kind of special thin cartridge. The rear of the section has a strange contour. The angle cut that you can see appears to be intentional (clean, smooth cut) but the end of the protruding flange looks like something broke off there. The interior of this section has nothing to retain a cartridge or converter; it is just a cylinder with the back of the feed very slightly recessed from the shortest edge. The interior of the barrel is completely smooth and the same golden color.
I am sure that this is some sort of low range pen, and even if I fix it I would not use it, but know I want to know how this pen was originally intended to be filled. There is no o-ring, nor provision for an o-ring to suggest it is an eyedropper.

Thank you for any suggestions that may put my mind at ease. And that is corrosion around the nib collar.Code:Length 138 mm 5 7/16” 5.438 in Posted Length 150 mm 6 " 6.000 in Unposted length 116 mm 4 35/64” 4.547 in Barrel Length 104 mm 4 3/32” 4.094 in Cap Length 60 mm 2 11/32” 2.344 in Barrel Max Dia 7.5 mm 19/64" .298 in Barrel Min Dia 6.0 mm 15/64” .236 in Section Min Dia 6.0 mm 15/64” .236 in Barrel ID 6.0 mm 15/64” .236 in for the first 2”
