| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a large dark blue vignette rendered in an Expressionist woodcut style, showing silhouetted figures of Hussite warriors carrying flags and torches amid flames, referencing the historical sacking of Fürstenwalde's cathedral in 1432. The year '·1432·' is inscribed within the vignette, with the artist's signature 'Jakob Gilly' visible at lower right. Vertical side panels in beige with stylised oak-leaf motifs flank the central scene, and the denomination 'Fünfzig Pfennig' is printed vertically in red Gothic lettering on each side panel. |
