I believe the engraving is stamped on the cap in my research about the issue. Both stampings are different though. It writes about as good as all Montblancs do. No complaints. Wonderful pen! I couldn’t be happier
If you look up the history of Purdy and Sons, you will certainly appreciate their contribution to all things sporting.

Montblanc's contribution to that history is nice but minimal and very well done! That pen is gorgeous! Enjoy it in the extreme!
