O Kitzingen, du trautes Städtchen, schief steht dein Falterturm am Main, gar lieblich sind deine Frankenmädchen, und rassig ist den Frankenwein.

Reverse description The reverse presents a full-width coloured vignette of the Kitzingen market square centred on a lion-head fountain with a heroic armoured statue rising above it, backed by a row of characteristic Franconian townhouses. To the left, a peasant woman carrying baskets of eggs and poultry is paired with the city's heraldic shield; to the right, a hoarder figure laden with goods is accompanied by a second coat of arms. The years '1914' and '1920' flank the central scene, and a satirical verse runs along all four borders of the design commenting on wartime profiteering.
