| Reverse description | Left-hand vignette in fine crosshatched black and ochre letterpress shows a stern, robed figure — evoking Thomas Müntzer — standing in the foreground, sword at his side, gazing over a broad panoramic landscape toward the silhouette of Mühlhausen's Gothic spires; three pike-staffs bearing severed heads rise from the fields. The denomination '50 Pfg.' is printed in large red Gothic numerals at upper right within a ruled cartouche, below which the series letter 'F' appears in a circle. A historicising text panel at right recounts the execution of Münzer and Pfeiffer in blackletter script. The artist's initials 'K.U.' appear at lower left. |
