| Reverse description | Grey and ochre bicolour note with matching Art Nouveau foliage border panels on the left and right margins. The central vignette illustrates the Silesian folk legend of Rübezahl: a giant bearded figure, rendered in outline against a pale ground, strides across a hilltop scattering a shower of golden ducats over a panoramic townscape of Greiffenberg below, its church steeples clearly visible on the horizon. A mound of golden coins fills the foreground, rendered in ochre overprint. |
