Description from the seller
GERMANY. Berlin. 1/2 Mark. 1916. Wilhelm II (1888-1918)
- Value: 1/2 Mark.
- Reign: Wilhelm II (1888-1918).
- Year: 1916.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: crowned German imperial eagle, with legend DEUTSCHES REICH and date 1916. Reverse: face value 1/2 MARK in the center, surrounded by laurel and oak crown.
- Grading: MS64 (NGC).
Half Mark silver coin with a classical heraldic representation of the German Empire. The obverse shows the naturalistic-style imperial eagle, with good detail in plumage and crown, featuring sharp reliefs and clean fields. The reverse presents the facial value 1/2 Mark inside a finely engraved vegetal crown, balanced and well centered. The specimen retains its original mint lustre with a light, uniform patina, and only minimal contact marks consistent with its grade, offering a very attractive and solid presence for its late German Empire issue.
Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
