The Parker I had years ago in what has been termed "unfired" condition by some of the most esteemed PGCA members is the very best I have ever owned in terms of condition of originality. The fact that it is a Grade 1 with minimal engraving allows us to fully view the casehardening colors. I suspect the current owner, like myself, has never fired it either.
