Welcome home. Pull up a stump and set a spell while you write with that pen.

By the way, I thought 4810 is the height of Mont Blanc and it appears on the Montblanc nibs along with (usually) gold marking of purity of the gold in parts per thousand (e.g., 585, 750).

azkid is correct. The actual height of Montblanc is 4808 metres and that's the significance of the number 4810 on the nibs of Montblanc pens.
Numbered Limited Edition pens usually have their number out of the total number near to the tops of their caps.

The POA is correctly spelled as Montblanc Gaius Maecenas The Luxury Closet (http://theluxurycloset.com/men/montblanc-patron-of-art-gaius-maecenas-limited-edition-4810-fountain-pen-with-18k-gold-nib-p97043) sold theirs for £1,206 at 45% discount.

I suggest you don't write with it if you intend to sell it.

I just spotted that you already put it up for sale in the Classified ads on here. (Sorry to say this but you stand little to no chance of selling it by Bank Transfer)
