| Obverse description | The central vignette presents a detailed woodcut-style illustration of a medieval Ostheim street scene, with half-timbered houses and two prominent round towers with conical spires rising above the roofline. The town name 'Ostheim' is inscribed in Gothic blackletter script at the top centre. Flanking the central scene on both left and right are vertical panels with a guilloche-pattern underprint, each bearing the denomination numeral '5' and the word 'Pfennig' in bold Gothic lettering above the Ostheim municipal coat of arms — a castle gate with a rampant lion — rendered at the lower portion of each side panel. |
