This specimen was part of lot 22648 in Stack's Bowers ANA sale (Chicago, August 2019), which sold for $80. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY. Pair of Empire Marks (2 Pieces), 1875. Wilhelm I. Both NGC or PCGS Certified. 1) 1875-B. PCGS MS-62 Gold Shield. Hannover Mint. 2) 1875-C. NGC MS-63. Frankfurt Mint. The 1875-B Mark has a value of $275 in MS-60 condition in the Standard Catalog of World Coins." 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.
Recorded mintage: 7,689,465, a better date.
Specification: 5.55 g, 0.900 fine silver.
Catalog reference: KM-7; J-9.
