This specimen was lot 72453 in Stack's Bowers Collector's Choice sale (Santa Ana, CA, June 2020), where it sold for $228. The catalog description[1] noted, "GERMANY. Empire. Mark, 1914-G. Karlsruhe Mint. NGC MS-68. Tied with a handful of others for the finest in the NGC census, this blazing Gem offers flawless surfaces that are incredibly radiant and lustrous. Just a hint of burnt sienna toning is observed at the bottom of each side, though it otherwise remains entirely argent."

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. This one is common.
