The Nikolai Platinum was officially produced from 2000 to 2002 but was still for some years in sale; official quantities are not available, since it is no Limited Edition. The retail prices were in 2000 for the Classique fountain pen around 825 euros, in 2002 895 euros; currently Classique models are offered used at about 895 euros, LeGrand variants significantly higher. To the equipment belonged a special outer sleeve and an additional booklet; otherwise the scope of delivery corresponds to the other Meisterstücks. An authenticity check via the serial number is basically possible at Montblanc, ideally via a specialist retailer; a reliable value forecast, however, cannot be made.
