| Reverse description | The reverse presents a sweeping vignette of the Gaisalpe am Achensee, with a towering limestone cliff dominating the centre and Alpine chalets nestled at its base beside the lake, all rendered in a fine illustrative style with warm ochre and brown tones. The denomination '50 heller' appears in stylised numerals at the upper left and upper right, flanking the scenic composition, while a shield cartouche bearing an edelweiss motif occupies the lower left. The printer's imprint 'WAGNER, INNSBRUCK' is inscribed at the lower left margin, with the locality name 'EBEN AM ACHENSEE' immediately above it. |
