Up for sale is a near mint Aurora 88, piston filler, with a 14k gold nib. The 88 is about the same size as a Mont Blanc 146 (see my comparison here). The 88 has an ink reserve to keep you going when you initially run out of ink. To access the reserve just cycle the piston to the bottom its stroke. The piston knob will now be in the extended position acting as a reminder that you are low on ink. The fine nib is rather soft and springy which provides a hint of flex. It has been hand ground into a stub with flow that is slightly more dry than wet. $250 SOLD
