| Reverse description | The reverse is executed as a striking Scherenschnitt (paper-cut silhouette) vignette in black, white, grey, and red-orange tones. The central panel presents a bold silhouette composition: a large bear bowing over a kneeling female figure before a radiant sun, with flocks of ravens in flight and the Kyffhäuser monument silhouetted at lower left. Decorative red-orange border rules frame the composition, with additional flying raven silhouettes in the grey side panels. A two-line verse in Gothic script runs above and below the central vignette. |
