| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in a bold woodcut-style design on a dark ground. The upper register bears the inscription "GUTSCHEIN ARCHSUM A/SYLT" flanked by two heraldic shields — to the left a fish over wavy bars representing the Archsum arms, to the right a quartered shield with crown and eagle for Schleswig-Holstein — with the denomination "2 Mark" in red at centre. The lower field is occupied by a dramatic vignette of the storm flood of 3 December 1909, rendered in dense cross-hatching and showing inundated farmhouses amid turbulent waves, captioned "Sturmflut am 3. Dez. 1909." at lower right. |
