Mysterious Number 0132110 On Parker Duofold Nib

[ko6]

One of the Japanese blog posed a question of the meaning of the number 0132110 on a vintage Duofold nib. I would greatly appreciate your answer to this question. (The image quoted from the site, http://pelikan.livedoor.biz/ )

For a brief period Parker put serial numbers on the nibs found in Duofold pens.

looks like a 1923-1926 extra fine nib

What's your source for that date range? I suspect circa 1931 based on the pens on which these are found.

I have seen once a vintage senior flat top which was equipped with that kind of nib. Perhaps was it found more commonly on the streamlined duos? I don't know but it is just my personal opinion

Duofold book shows these nibs are from 1931-1932. There is also mention of a two tone nib in 1932.
