To me, this Parker Duofold looks like an Englisgh AF Duofold, prodced between 1948 to 1953. I also find wrong the clip of the pen, or could be the entire cap. The clip looks like the ones on Vacumaic, either a clip replacement, either the whole cap from a Vacumatic.

the color coincides completely because it is a color that is neither black nor dark blue, so the barrel coincides with cap, the color it is a mixture of both it seems to me. the cap fits flawlessly. Lenght capped is around 132mm, hope it helps.

To me, this seems to be an English Parker Duofold AF.

 

I agree, some Danish had the 'Parker' split arrow clip. However, on its own, that is not sufficient to identify the pen as being made in Denmark. The English nib [the 'N' stands for 'Newhaven' - the location of the factory where the nib was manufactured] and the 'Made in England' stamp on the barrel tells me that this is a UK manufactured pen.

 

In order to be able to conclude Danish manufacture, I would like to see a Danish nib and/or an imprint on the barrel indicating Danish manufacture - e.g. M.I.D.

Dont have the MID, and dont have the anchor. I must conclude that despite having Parker's name on a clip is not a dannish made. The color of the cap and the barrel is the same, must be original and have the golden aluminum. These are all situations that let me to think of being the Danish. but what version after that could be?

Clip may be a replacement. Even the cap may be a replacement.

 

As you say the barrel clearly says 'MADE IN ENGLAND' and the nib is an English Newhaven nib. The AF aluminium filler button also came gold colored.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
