This specimen was lot 34111 in Heritage sale 3067 (Long Beach, September 2018), where it sold for $396. The catalog description[1] noted, "Germany: Wilhelm II Proof 1/2 Mark 1915-J PR67 NGC, Hamburg mint. A visually stunning specimen with central peach tones bleeding into magenta and cobalt as it spreads outwards, a feature completely in keeping with its highest certified status in the NGC census. From the Feeling Good Collection." This coin is from a type issued 1905-19 from the Berlin (mintmark "A"), Munich (mintmark "D"), Muldenhutten (mintmark "E"), Stuttgart (mintmark "F"), Karlsruhe (mintmark "G") and Hamburg (mintmark "J", shown here) 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 1915-19 issues were almost completely hoarded, making them common today in all grades.
Recorded mintage: 2,285,000.
Specification: 2.77 g, 0.900 fine silver, 20 mm diameter.
Catalog reference: KM 17, J-16.
