Wurttemberg. 3 Mark, 1916-F. NGC PROOF-63. VERY RARE 1916 3 Mark Commemorating the reign of Wilhelm II. VERY RARE one year type struck to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the reign of Wilhelm II. A proof only issue with a mintage of only 1,000 pieces (it is estimated that about 650 pieces of this issue were melted according to Jaeger). Deep old envelope toning with cobalt, plum and orange peel highlights, particularly on obverse. A handsome example of one of the rarest silver minor coins from this period of German history. Matte finish on obverse. From the Rockaway Collection." Coin issues ceased at the start of World War One and the kingdom was abolished with the collapse of the Empire in 1918.
