Reverse description The numeral 2, rendered in a large, elegant serif typeface, occupies the central field and is enclosed within a raised beaded circle. Surrounding this inner circle, the legend ZWEI NEU-GUINEA PFENNIG arcs across the upper periphery, with the date 1894 appearing at the lower right and the Berlin Mint mark A positioned at the base. The entire design is framed by a rope-twist border matching that of the obverse, consistent with the unified aesthetic of the issue.
