| Reverse description | The reverse is printed on a green mottled background with small folkloric figure vignettes scattered in the corners and margins. At centre, a cartouche with a jagged decorative red-and-black border encloses a scene of the Wildeshausen Schützenfest: a line of riflemen's guild members in green uniforms and black hats stands at attention beside a standard-bearer, while a woman in a white dress approaches carrying flowers, referencing the ceremonial crowning of the Schützenkönig. A four-line verse in Low German Fraktur script is inscribed above the figures within the cartouche. |
| Reverse lettering | Wenn uck de Monarchie verschwund Hier bleew se doch bitt dille Stund Schützenkönig ward hoch ehrt, Aß jo hier ditt Bild all lehrt. |
