| Reverse description | A heroic male figure, nude and depicted in dynamic contrapposto, stands at centre field raising a hammer or club overhead in a striking pose, reminiscent of classical Herculean iconography. At the figure's feet coils a serpent or dragon, suggesting a allegorical scene of strength triumphing over evil. The denomination 1 KRONE appears to the right of the figure, with the date 1914 below it. The word PROBE (meaning 'pattern' or 'trial') is inscribed beneath the denomination, identifying this piece as a pattern strike. The engraver's signature GOETZ appears in small letters near the base of the design. |
