Reverse description The central vignette presents a detailed letterpress scene of a horse-drawn cart standing in shallow coastal waters alongside a single-masted sailing vessel, with figures on both conveyances and seabirds in a cloudy sky — evoking the traditional supply transport to the isolated hallig. The vignette is framed by a red border with green lateral panels carrying stylised star or floral repeat ornaments, and denomination panels reading '50 PF.' in the lower corners. Below the vignette, a two-column verse inscription in Low German (Frisian dialect) is printed in black.
Reverse lettering Minn Eilöhn iss mien Huss,
Minn Waag is Skapp to See.
Dirr stöhnt die Röösestruns,
Die ich ön Wohl ek see.
50 PF.
Signature(s) Eduard Pansen
