Reverse description Tan-coloured reverse with a rust-red outer border and the numeral '25' repeated in each corner. A large circular vignette at centre contains a finely engraved line-art view of Goethes Gartenhaus, the modest garden house set among trees in the park, rendered with atmospheric hatching to suggest overcast skies. The title 'Goethes Gartenhaus' is inscribed in script above the vignette, and 'im Park zu Weimar.' appears below, with two Goethe quotations in cursive script on the left and right flanks of the central medallion.
Reverse lettering Goethes Gartenhaus
im Park zu Weimar.
Übermütig sieht's nicht aus, Dieses stille Gartenhaus.
Allen die darin verkehrt, Ward ein guter Mut bescheert.
Goethe 1828
