Love the silver overlay in the middle, and what set is at the bottom?
That would be a 14K cap in the fishscale pattern at the bottom. Nice first year aero 51 set - note the wide cap bands, the button-filler Duofold looks to have good trim, Waterman's 12?, and plum 51. Good week indeed!

Matt, very close, have a brownie! The overlay is actually a Parker with a #3 keyhole nib; no idea of model number though.
Wow! Very nice!!!!! Those Parker overlay's are not common, let me help you out. Edit: Cant find anything, is there a Parker mark or a Health stamp? It could be an added nib, since ive yet to see anything...

I think it should technically be a #14, but that doesn't explain the oddness of the overlay. It is marked parker, but lacks the usual number on the bottom of the pen.
Just the nib is marked Parker, correct? Is the barrel or the overlay marked?

Oh yeah, I should have recognized the pattern. Years ago, I frequented a now-gone antique shop that had something similar, missing the cap. The dealer kept telling me she had the cap somewhere at home, but never seemed interested in finding it - don't you just hate that?
