This specimen was lot 3029 in Steve Album Auction 51 (Santa Rosa, CA, January 2025), where it sold for $90. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY: Kaiserreich, AR 20 pfennig, 1876-B, a superb lustrous example! PCGS graded MS65." 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. This issue of the Dresden (not Hannover, as catalogued) mint is a slightly scarce date of a type struck 1873-77. When the twenty pfennig was revived in 1887, it was in copper-nickel (KM 9.1).
Recorded mintage: 11,648,000.
