A Meisterstück ballpoint with silver or platinum-coloured fittings instead of gilt ones belongs to the Platinum Line. The model in question is the Meisterstück Classique ballpoint, number 164P; the appended P stands for the Platinum version, in which clip and rings are platinum-plated rather than gold-plated, while the body, as on the classic model, is black precious resin. The 164P is easily confused with the very similar-looking 165P twist pencil, which is chiefly told apart by its slightly slimmer body and, of course, by the lead it takes.
As for price, the ballpoint stood at around 240 euros new in Germany as of 2006. Second-hand it changes hands well below that; the price is governed above all by the condition of the fittings, wear to clip and cap, and whether case and papers are complete. For actual use none of that matters, since the large-capacity refill is still available, so older examples can be kept in service without difficulty.
