Goldberg sale 100, lot 2515
Germany G100-2515r.jpg

This coin is a silver half mark from a type issued 1905-19 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 half marks are not rare but the 1914-19 issues were almost completely hoarded, making them common today in all grades. This specimen was lot 2515 in Goldberg sale 100 (Los Angeles, September 2017), where it sold for $293.75. The catalog description[1] noted, "Germany. ½ Mark, 1911-E. Gorgeous toning. Pop 1, none finer. PCGS graded MS-68."

Recorded mintage: 376,000, a somewhat better date.

Specification: 2.77 g, 0.900 fine silver, .080 troy oz AGW.

Catalog reference: KM-17.
