jlaw0201 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 (edited) I've taken a pretty extensive look online, and can't seem to find this style of Cross pen. It doesn't quite look like a Townsend or Century II to me. Any thoughts? Edited January 23 by jlaw0201 Link to post Share on other sites
Dione Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 It looks like a Cross Century to me Link to post Share on other sites
zeroduke Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 This seems to be a Cross Townsend but there are two rare things there: the clip and the single ring on the lip of the cap. It might be an old or a special edition. Very interesting indeed. Link to post Share on other sites
jlaw0201 Posted January 24 Author Share Posted January 24 Did a bit more searching - it seems it's a Century 2000, a special edition for the millennium. Basically the cap of a Century with the body of a Townsend. Thanks both for your help. Link to post Share on other sites
Jerome Tarshis Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 Good find. The Century 2000 had limited distribution while it was being manufactured, and it tends not to be in the front rank of most people's recollections. Link to post Share on other sites
MrThoth Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 It isn't a Townsend -- it lacks the distinctive two rings at the bottom of the cap (the top of the cap and the bottom of the barrel are exactly like a Townsend, though). It's definitely a Century 2000 -- great pens, in my experience. Great find! MrThothScribe, Master of Mystic Lore, Young Curmudgeon Link to post Share on other sites
