Obverse description Yellow-ochre underprint overlaid with a decorative border composed of braided rope motifs in green, red, blue, and black. At upper left, a small vignette imitates a plebiscite postage stamp inscribed PLEBISCIT and SLESVIG with a lion device in red; at centre, a nine-field heraldic shield incorporating the symbols of the Angeln region — including a heart with arrows, a harp, a crescent and star, a tree, a lion, a fish, a scythe, the letter T, and crossed keys. To the right, a Low German patriotic verse is set in black letterpress, with the issuing authority designation, a facsimile manuscript signature, the date 14. MÄRZ. 1920, and the bold slogan DEUTSCH GEBLIEBEN / DURCH UNSERN WILLEN 1920 printed below the arms.
