Reverse description The reverse carries a rural vignette in letterpress style, centred on a traditional wooden fruit press dated '1920' at its crossbeam, operated by a seated male figure in period dress. To the left, a large fruit-laden tree and a barrel marked 'MOST.' (cider) accompany a smaller barrel in the background, evoking the local apple-cider tradition of the region. The denomination '50 Heller' is set in bold Fraktur type at upper right, and the issuer's name appears in a cartouche along the lower margin, all enclosed within a serrated decorative border.
