The last pen in the series arrived after a brief delay, but it could certainly be considered the coup de grace of the line. This one made its debut in 2003 with a run of just 1100 pens and was based on the original Toledo T111. A black celluloid cap combines with a black hard rubber knob and piston section. The binder is engraved in the Toledo style with two panels of pelican motifs. Unlike modern Toledo's, this pen is much more ornate. The barrel lacks any stamping and the piston knob once again sports an arrow. The drop-shaped clip features an engraving of a pelican and its beak and the cap's double bands are also embellished. These small details serve to make this one really stand out as perhaps the most beautiful and artistic of the lot. The cap once again features the word "Pelikan" with green fill in the old style font along with the numbered edition with no fill on the opposite side. The ink viewing window is dark amber and the 18 karat yellow gold writing tip is the same as detailed above.
