This pen is a vintage Aurora 98 ballpoint pen in gold-plated millerighe (fine fluted lines) finish, dating to the late 1960s to 1970s era.
Era Details & Highlights
• The Model: This is the companion ballpoint to the highly famous Aurora 98 fountain pen series, which was released as the sleek, modern successor to the rounded mid-century Aurora 88.
• Design Features: You can identify it by its slender, geometric profile, the fine vertically striped guilloche pattern running down the gold plating, and the signature stacked black plastic/enamel accent rings positioned right near the midsection clutch.
• The Packaging: The classic brown cardboard outer box showing five gold stripes, the golden satin-lined hard case, and the "La Società AURORA DUE" paper guarantee slip are all perfectly authentic to the retail presentation used by Aurora from roughly 1968 through the mid-1970s.
