| Reverse description | A large Gothic arch vignette dominates the centre of the note, enclosing a Low German verse referencing Till Eulenspiegel in red and black Gothic script, with the verse attributed to the initials 'Fr. G.' A figure of Till Eulenspiegel in medieval dress stands to the left beside a timber-framed arcade, while the upper field carries a caption panel identifying the Eulenspiegel house on Schulzenstrasse. The city arms — a red shield with anchor and rose — appear centrally at the foot, flanked by the denomination 'Fünfzig Pfennig' repeated on both sides in bold red Gothic lettering. |
