Best Answer

The first patent for a ballpoint pen was issued on 30 October 1888, to John J. Loud, however the idea of using a ball point within a writing instrument to applying ink to paper has existed since the late 19th century.

It was invented around the year 700 in Seville, Spain. No one knows exactly who invented it, it may have been more than one person.
