It won't be listed by --list-keys and doesn't give an error message.
It does, in fact.rjh@sarah ~ % gpg --recv-keys 0x020898F03962F8B76B42D9F1E805C860F0E3CCB5 --verbose
gpg: Note: '--verbose' is not considered an option gpg: "--verbose" not a key ID: skipping gpg: key E805C860F0E3CCB5: no user ID gpg: Total number processed: 1"--verbose" needs to come before any commands. That's why you're not seeing verbose output.
The reason why you're not importing the certificate is because the certificate is corrupt or malformed. According to the OpenPGP specification, a certificate must have at least one user ID. This certificate has no user IDs, which means it's garbage data and GnuPG is doing the right thing by not importing a corrupt or malformed certificate.
Hope this helps!
