Stack's Bowers May 2024 Collector's Choice sale, lot 32281
SB524-32281r.jpg

This specimen was lot 32281 in Stack's Bowers Collector's Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, May 2024), where it sold for $125. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY. Empire. 5 Pfennig, 1914-F. Stuttgart Mint. Wilhelm II. PCGS MS-66. Tied with just five others for the top spot in the PCGS census, this stunning Gem provides an even steely gray hue to the surfaces." This coin is a copper-nickel five pfennig struck at the Berlin (mintmark "A"), Munich (mintmark "D"), Muldenhutten (mintmark "E"), Stuttgart (mintmark "F", shown here), 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. This type was struck 1890-1915 but wartime shortages forced the regime to convert the coin to iron in 1915-22.

Recorded mintage: 2,206,000, a common date.

Specification: 2.5 g, copper-nickel, 18 mm diameter.

Catalog reference: KM-11; J-12.
