I have a P45 Flighter with gold trim, including the barrel finial. The nib code is "W" which I've never seen before. I got several P45s with special nibs--obiques, stubs, italics, etc. and thought I had a pretty good handle on the various nib codes, but I've never seen a W. The nib is quite broad...at first I thought it might be a broad stub, but the corners of the tip are more rounded...maybe a double broad? I can't find a reference to a "W" nib code...has anyone seen this before?

I've never had a w nib, but I've seen several pictures online and I've seen it described as such:

 

W= Extra Broad or broad stub or broad italic
