This specimen was lot 3113 in Stephen Album sale 50 (Santa Rosa, CA, September 2024), where it did not sell. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY: Kaiserreich, AR 1/2 mark, 1914-J, attractive light peripheral tone, better date/mintmark, NGC graded MS65." This coin is a silver half mark from a type issued 1905-19 from the Berlin (mintmark "A"), Munich (mintmark "D"), Muldenhutten (mintmark "E"), Stuttgart (mintmark "F"), Karlsruhe (mintmark "G") and Hamburg (mintmark "J", shown here) 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 half marks are not rare but the 1914-19 issues were almost completely hoarded, making them common today in all grades.
Recorded mintage: 2,292,000, a slightly better date.
Specification: 2.77 g, 0.900 fine silver, 20 mm diameter.
Catalog reference: KM-17.
