When you show the Pen in a CircularGauge's Hand, the Format.Pen.Visible property isn't serialized.

To reproduce the problem:

- Add a CircularGauge Series to a new Chart.
- See the form in "Text View" (Alt+F12). You'll see the Format.Pen.Visible is serialized as False.
- Go back to the "Form View".
- Open the Editor and check the "Visible" checkbox at "Format/Options/Hands/Border/Format" tab in the CircularGauge.
- See the form in "Text View" (Alt+F12). You'll see the Format.Pen.Visible is not serialized.
- Go back to the "Form View".

Now you'll see how the pen has been hidden.

The workaround is to force the Pen visibility by code:

procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Series1.Hand.Pen.Visible:=True;
end;

Fixed. Pen.DefaultVisible was not set to False.
