Reverse description The reverse presents a central historical vignette, signed by the artist P. Gele, illustrating a scene of armoured medieval knights confronting a bishop and his attendant, referencing the imprisonment of Caspar Hans Edler Herr zu Putlitz at Burg Ziesar. Interlaced Gothic knotwork panels in olive-green flank the scene on either side, with red denomination cartouches bearing 'M' at the lower corners. A four-line verse in Gothic script occupies the lower panel, and the design registration number 'D.R.G.M. 795679' appears below the lower border.
Reverse lettering Caspar Hans Edler Herr zu Putlitz als Gefangener des Bischofs zu Brandenburg Henning von Bredow auf Burg Ziesar
Das war in alten Zeiten so: —
der Ritter raubte frech und froh, —
doch einen steckt' man ins Verließ,
And dieser Hans zu Putlitz hieß. —
D.R.G.M. 795679
