This specimen was lot 277 in Sincona sale 46 (Zürich, May 2018), where it sold for 170 CHF (about US$204 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"Preussen, Königreich, Wilhelm I. 1861-1888. 5 Mark 1877 A, Berlin. Sehr schön. Kleine Kratzer. (Germany, kingdom of Prussia, William I, 1861-88, gold five mark of 1877, Berlin mint. Very fine, Small scratches.)"
After striking silver five marks 1874-76, gold five marks were issued from the Berlin, Hannover and Frankfurt mints 1877-78. The type does not seem to have been a success, as the denomination was suspended and silver five mark resumed in 1888.
Recorded mintage: 1,218,718.
Specification: 1.99 g, 0.900 fine gold, this specimen 1.96 g.
Catalog reference: J. 244A. Fr-3825; KM 507.
