| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a finely detailed letterpress vignette of the Stuttgart cityscape identified by the caption 'Stuttgart — Altes Schloß und Stiftskirche', rendered in sepia-brown tones with the Altes Schloss complex in the middle ground and the towers of the Stiftskirche rising prominently to the right against a lightly hatched sky. The denomination '50 Pfennig' is set in large bold type at the lower right corner, serving as the sole typographic element on this otherwise pictorial face. |
