| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a view of St. Catherine's Convent (Katharinenkloster) in Stralsund, a Gothic brick structure that houses the German Oceanographic Museum (Meeresmuseum). A fin whale skeleton, one of the museum's most celebrated exhibits, is shown suspended prominently in the composition, evoking the institution's marine natural history collections. The dual commemorative legends encircling the design reference the 750th anniversary of the founding of the convent and the 50th anniversary of the Oceanographic Museum at Stralsund. |
