| Reverse description | Central scenic vignette shows the Lange Anna sea stack and the Helgoland sandstone cliffs silhouetted against a pale twilight sky, their forms reflected in calm water, captioned «Nathürn» at upper left. Flanking the central scene on each side are naturalistic vignettes of common murres (guillemots) perched on rocky outcrops, all enclosed within a decorative foliate border with ornamental corner pieces. Large red numeral «50» appears in framed panels at upper left and upper right, while the island name is rendered in bold decorative Gothic script across the lower margin on a scroll. |
