Stockholms Rare Coin Museum Promo Floaty Pen by Eskie

Promo Pen from Stockholm's Royal Coin Cabinet Museum
Float pens have been charming collectors for nearly 60 years. Each pen has a photo image that floats back and forth or up and down inside a clear window. There was a time when float pens were commonly found at tourist traps, airports, museums, amusement parks and travel plazas, but they have disappeared from many locations. Thank heaven collectors can rely on the Internet for these little gems.

This pen was created to promote Kungliga Myntkabinettet, a museum in Stockholm. According to their website: “The Royal Coin Cabinet is part of the organization of the Museums of National Antiquities. The Royal Coin Cabinet is a specialized museum with a national responsibility in areas such as the history of money and finance as well as medals. The collection contains coins and other means of payment as well as medals and other objects with numismatic connection from all of the world. The museum is in charge of keeping the national register of coin hoards up to date. Taking care of the collection, showing it to the public and keeping it in order, is something we take most seriously.”

The image of a group of 7 rare coins float back and forth from an open treasure chest in the foreground to a sailing ship in the backdrop. of the island to the sea. The caption panel, on the backside of the pen, includes: 'Kungliga Myntkabinettet Stockholm', in white, flanked by seahorses, over a black panel.

If you are unfamiliar with Eskesen floaty pens... this is a picture of an Eskesen pen in their classic style.

The top portion of the pen is a clear window where the artwork is displayed. Roll the pen over and the 'caption panel' is on the backside. Classic style pens have a metal pocket clip. The tip and body of the pen are usually in matching colors, but not always. Twist the corrugated tip, at the bottom of the pen, to expose/retract the writing point. I do have refills for this style.
