| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in the same dark ink on a light ground, with two full-length armoured medieval knights standing as lateral border figures flanking a central text panel. The text panel reproduces seven stanzas of the Rodenstein legend poem (by Scheffel) in Gothic blackletter script, framed by ornamental guilloche bands. Denomination numerals '1 Mark' appear at top left, top right, bottom left, and bottom right corners, with a lower central cartouche referencing the memorial of Hans Heinrich zu Rodenstein in the church of Fränkisch-Crumbach. |
