✨ Collectibility
The Parker 180 is well-loved for its innovative nib design and elegant form. The silver-tone stainless version is harder to find than the colored resin models and is especially desirable to collectors. The XM two-way nib is also one of the more useful configurations offered in the 180 line.
A great choice for collectors of vintage Parker designs or anyone who appreciates a versatile gold-nib pen.
