| Reverse description | The reverse is divided into three vertical panels against a blue scroll-work ground. The left panel carries a red heraldic shield with two rampant golden lions holding a crowned pretzel, representing the baker's guild arms of Stolzenau. The central panel presents a vignette of a female baker in white apron tending loaves in a large oven with a long-handled peel, with the denomination '1 Mark' in white Gothic lettering above. The right panel bears an oval yellow cartouche enclosing a craftsmen's coat of arms with square and compass devices; below the panels the motto 'Des deutschen Handwerk's Herrlichkeit erhalte sich in Ewigkeit' is split across left and right text blocks, and a full-width footer reads 'Handwerk hat goldenen Boden' in bold black Gothic lettering. |
