134 Vs 144 Nib?

[siamackz]

How would one tell the difference between a 14k MB 134 and a celluloid 144 nib? Are there marking or numbers at the bottom of the nib? I have seen numbers on the 144 nib - but are all 144 nibs always numbered and if not numbered then does it mean its a 134 nib? I are there other descriptors too? Thanks

My celluoid 144 has a nib which is clearly stamped 134, across the bottom of the nib.

 

Got a picture somewhere, but can't find it just now. Don't want to take the pen apart to photograph, as it's working very well , at the moment - but if I find the picture, I'll add it to this post.

 

Cheers.

 

Here, we go. Not a great photo, but you get the idea. Best wishes. CS

Ah, thank you, this helps! So it looks pretty identical to the 144 nib then, right? Except for the imprint

I compare your 134 pic to my 144. I can see only one difference and Im not sure if it is a difference that is consistent across all 134 gold nibs to be used as a clear visual differentiator. Is it?

The reason I am asking is because I am wondering if my 134 has the correct nib or a 144 nib instead. I dont wont to take it out of the pen because it is working really great. See pic below:
