Reverse description The reverse carries a lively genre vignette in a letterpress illustrative style, showing a group of Hamburg street characters in early 19th-century dress — including a rotund cook in a tall white toque and a pipe-smoking merchant — gathered in a market scene with a church tower visible in the background. The heading 'NOTWECHSELGELD' and denomination '1 Mark' appear at the top within the same bordered layout as the obverse. The lower panel bears the title 'HAMBORGS ORIGINOLE' above several stanzas of Low German verse celebrating Hamburg's local types and civic pride.
