| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in blue, orange, and ochre tones within an ornate border with orange corner squares each bearing the numeral '25'. The central vignette presents a landscape scene with three figures standing on open terrain against a billowing cloud formation, rendered in a coloured lithographic style evoking an early medieval historical narrative. Above the vignette the motto 'IEDER NEVNTE MVSS IN DIE BVRG ZIEHRI' is inscribed in Gothic-style lettering, flanked by the place-name inscriptions 'FRASA' and 'FRASVN'. The heading 'STADT FROHSE' appears at top centre in large capitals, with '25' repeated in the corner squares and vertical side panels reading 'FÜNFUNDZWANZIG PFENNIGE'; the printer's imprint 'FABER, MAGDEBURG' appears at lower left. |
