Künker sale 264, lot 3985

This specimen was lot 3985 in Künker sale 264 (Osnabrück, June 2015), where it sold for €3,200 (about US$4,134 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"50 Pfennig 1875, H. Äußerst selten in dieser Erhaltung. Kabinettstück. Herrliche Patina, Stempelglanz. (empire of Germany, fifty pfennig of 1875. Rare in this grade, handsome toning, uncirculated.)"

This coin is a silver fifty pfennig from a type issued 1875-77 from the Darmstadt (mintmark "H") mint. 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 is a slightly better type but this is the key date.

Recorded mintage: 175,000.

Specification: 2.77 g, 0.900 fine silver, 20 mm diameter, reeded edge.

Catalog reference: J. 7. KM 6.
