There is a small circular hole under the clip on the cap. The chrome clip and cap band retain shine, with light marks and minimal dulling on the cap edge. The 2556 nib appears clean, straight, and with aligned tips, and the grip-thread is in good condition. Vintage piece not serviced in our workshop: a sac check before use with ink is recommended.
