German silver is typically less than Sterling ( .925), It actually ranges around 900 but isn't all exactly 900. I've seen pieces marked from 800-900.
Not to be confused with "German Silver" which has .000 silver content.

There seems to be some disagreement among online sources on dauntless vs. stalwart models.

got this:http://www.ebay.com/...cvip=true&rt=nc
I really like this nib. The tines straightened out easily. - is it rare/valuable?
Does it look like it is a screw or press fit?
The pen is just a cheap piston filler, but I'm curious anyway - it seems like something a real professional musician would actually own.

Just got this in the mail today:

Is the cap normal, or is there some kind of jewel missing?

Thanks for all the information. Did the Conklin patent expire before these were made?
