Help ID this pen

This pen got me on the ropes :angry: I manage to find just two bits of info .. one was an ebay selling on just Nib's and the other was a thread in other forum (which was missing the pictures coz it was old one I guess).

Does anyone recognize some of the features .. like let say the Cap clip shape ( to me it looks like a tie maybe). The cap on the logo writes: 'Goldy' and the G is connected to the Y .. can't find any info tidbit on that brand/model. The Nib has written on it: 'HUNT CO / Made in USA / Alloy tipped / Fine' And that it is no other mark on the pen. It's a Piston filler with a clear window.

And some eye candy .. the pictures:

Lots of post-war piston fillers in Germany, many factories making school pens. Looks a lot like a Geha from the '50s but not quite.

Obviously not the original nib but I guess you knew that. Very nice pen, congrats!
 
Inexpensive German school pen indeed. Shame that it has a replacement nib; the original German nibs can be fabulous writers!
 
so who used that Nib? Hunt Co? .. the nib fits perfectly .. and the ebay sale for the 8 nibs was on ebay.de as well .. could they have been making some for the Germans? :)

Yeah this one is not as nicely made as the Pelikan I have (and that's the student model as well MK10 or MK30). I picked it up coz it was really cheap and looked nice with that pattern.
