All of the above and Stainless Steel too! Old Griz had mentioned that you could still get gold nibs from Parker Service in the US a while back.

Probably the most commonly found were the Gold Plated nibs, based on my not extensive experience.

I just picked up a silver colored one (which I am assuming is stainless steel) at an antique store.
It is definitely not gold or GP.
