Reverse description A full-width pictorial vignette in brown and ochre tones occupies the upper portion of the reverse, illustrating a medieval tithe scene in which peasants bearing baskets of eggs present their offering to a seated noblewoman, with a stylised church spire visible through an arch in the background; the artist's monogram 'M.F.' appears at the lower right of the vignette. The denomination '50 Pfennig' is repeated in bold letterpress panels at each lower corner, flanking a central text cartouche containing a four-line rhyming verse in Fraktur script. The series numeral '2' is printed at the foot of the note.
