Reverse description The central field bears a four-line German inscription commemorating the mining revenues (Ausbeute) of the Anhalt mining works, surmounted by the issue date. Crossed mining hammers appear in the lower central field, symbolizing the bergbau (mining) theme of this Ausbeute issue. A peripheral legend names the issuing ruler, Duke Alexander Carl of Anhalt. The composition is characteristic of the mid-19th century German mining thaler tradition, celebrating the productivity of regional silver mines.
