| Reverse description | Bold silhouette composition in black on a cream ground within an octagonal vignette framed by a gold and dark border, signed by Jakob Wurm, illustrating the death of Siegfried — a warrior struck down by a spear-wielding assailant amid stylised forest trees. Flanking side panels in gold and grey depict gnarled woodland motifs with a red flame accent at left, while the denomination numeral '50' appears in red at the lower left and right corners. The Gothic caption 'SIEG FRIEDS TOD' is centred at the lower margin, anchoring the dramatic Nibelungen narrative scene in a graphic idiom characteristic of the finest Künstler-Notgeld of the period. |
