The following one does: https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MK293LL/A/magic-keyboard-with-touch-id-for-mac-models-with-apple-silicon-us-english

Note that this model is designed only for Macs with Apple Silicon (M1, M1 Pro, etc)

Keyboard was purchased yesterday at an Apple store - MK2C3LL/A, Model A2520. It is being used with an M1 Mac mini, model A2348. MacOS is Big Sur 11.6. Eventually got it working after a couple of power-on cycles. Doc could be better - looks like they did not update help or instructions for this keyboard model. Example: no green LED, just a green patch visible when the switch is on.
