Received this lot today; I daresay you can identify the nice Swan Minor on the left (a separate purchase in fact).

The one to look at is fourth from the left; doesn't look much does it?  Beneath that horrid cheap (and broken cap) lies much to my great surprise and pleasure an Osmia 884 with BB nib.  The nib is the best I have ever used.   Of course the filling system doesn't work and I have not yet found out how the take the pen to bits without smashing it!

 

Here's a snap of the lovely nib:
