This coin is a silver one mark from a type issued 1891-1916 from the Berlin (mintmark "A"), Munich (mintmark "D"), Muldenhutten (mintmark "E", shown here), Stuttgart (mintmark "F"), Karlsruhe (mintmark "G") and Hamburg (mintmark "J") mints. Under the German Empire of 1871-1918, the denominations of two mark and up were permitted for the formerly independent principalities while the lower denominations (one pfennig thru one mark) were minted to a unified design. The pre-war silver marks are not rare but the 1914-16 issues were almost completely hoarded, making them common today in all grades. This specimen was lot 2518 in Goldberg sale 100 (Los Angeles, September 2017), where it sold for $35. The catalog description[1] noted, "Germany. Mark, 1912-E. Toned. NGC graded MS-65."
Recorded mintage: 708,000, a somewhat better date.
Specification: 5.55 g, 0.900 fine silver, .160 troy oz ASW.
