| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed broadside view of the Preussen, the famous German five-masted full-rigged sailing ship, depicted under full sail on an engraved sea with stylised waves in the lower field. The vessel's five masts, yards, and rigging are rendered with fine detail, capturing the grandeur of this historic windjammer. The name PREUSSEN is inscribed in decorative Gothic-style lettering along the lower field beneath the waterline, with the year 1993 appearing below in the exergue. |
