    Best Offer Special
    Vintage Solid 14K Gold "Cross" Mechanical Pencil
    Black Band Top 14K
    Made In USA
    ( 20.73 Grams Total Weight )
    This is Classic Solid 14K Gold "Cross" Mechanical Black Band Pencil.
    Made In The USA
    not the later models that are now made in China.
    Weighing in at over 20 Grams, (20.73) Total Weight this well functioning
    & Perfectly Balanced Instrument feels like Silky Smooth Natural
    Extension of your hand.
    The Inner Mechanism is a Chrome Metal and does affect the Golds Content Weight as do the Gold Tone Inner Mechanism Pencils that are not made of Solid 14k Gold either. They are only either Plated Gold or just Gold Tone Metal is what I have read in the Cross Corp.Website as well as researched. Solid 14k Gold would be too soft to function as the inner mechanism housing does.
    It measures at about 5 1/4 Inches Long and is Very Sleek both to the Eye as well as to the Hand.
    There are No deep Scratches or Gouges and although Vintage which is nice, & only minimal surface abrasions or light swirls or scratches.
    There is lead inside and all the functions work excellently and smoothly.
    The Eraser installed will need to be removed as well as a new one installed. The one in there is all used up.
    At the top of the Clip it has Stamped under the Black Band "Cross" 14k Gold & Made In USA.
    There are the initials "M R H" beautifully and lightly engraved along side the clip on one side.
    It kind of feels like there is a tiny ding that I can't see with my Naked Eye, below the initials on the long barrel of the pencil. Have added new pictures to try to show.
    The Tag on the clip is a neat Bar Graph with Line running up & down & up again with "Over & Over" written along the line. Have recently found that these can be removed with pliers or the gel in the center can be removed as well. May insert ones own Company or Person Name
    if so wanted.
    Great Beautiful & Usable Writing Instrument as well as a Nice Collectible to add to
    ones Collection.
    I have a few more that are Gold Filled, Grey & Black and was able to remove the little Tag from one when I tried from the clip with a pair of pliers and with the proper pressure and it looks great. It was attached with 2 little Barrels or Prongs & it left 2 little tiny uniform holes where the prongs went in. I have provided a picture for all
    to see. Anyone could do this to this one as well or leave the neat linear bar graph, which is kinda cool as is.
