Reverse description The reverse presents a finely detailed portrait of the German lexicographer Konrad Duden, depicted in three-quarter view, seated at a writing desk with a quill pen in hand, his head resting contemplatively against his right hand. The legend 'KONRAD DUDEN' arcs prominently along the upper field, with his birth and death dates '1829 - 1911' inscribed immediately below in the same arc. The year of issue '2004' appears in the right field. The portrait is executed in high relief with strong sculptural modelling against a deeply mirrored proof background.
