I have the option to get this from a seller that doesn't seem able to take proper photos

Does this look like an authentic 146 nib?

Looks ok. Ask for a picture of the feeder. The pen is clogged with dried ink btw.

the typical dried ink on the nib as seen in the pic. The pen was left to dry with ink in it. There will be dried ink in the pen reservoir too. So if the piston is not jammed, when you move it to flush the pen, dried ink will go behind the piston seal and create additional issues. It is typical. So figure some overhauling before the pen becomes useful.

I agree with Hari. it looks like a 146 nib in a pen that will need cleaning.
