Descrizione del rovescio	The denomination numeral '5' is prominently displayed in large, bold relief at the centre of the field, with the denomination word 'MARKA' inscribed below in capital letters. The circular legend 'EESTI VABARIIK' (Republic of Estonia) arcs around the upper portion of the field, flanked on either side by small four-pointed star ornaments. A single small star ornament appears at the base of the inner border. The entire design is enclosed within a continuous raised bead border, lending a neat, formal appearance to the reverse.

Informazioni aggiuntive	Estonia's marka series was already troubled by the time this piece was struck. The marka had been introduced in 1919 to replace the German-occupied territory's ostmark, but chronic instability led to its eventual abolition in 1928, when the kroon was introduced at a fixed rate of 100 marka. The 1924 nickel brass composition for this denomination replaced an earlier cupronickel version — a pragmatic materials substitution that the KM#3a designation distinguishes from its predecessor.
