| Reverse description | The central vignette reproduces the Skatbrunnen bronze group of Altenburg, rendered in the Jugendstil graphic manner of the series: two medieval card-player figures in red and grey costume face one another in animated dispute, seated on a low plinth, against a radiating fan-pattern underprint in red and cream. Denomination boxes in the four corners each read '50 Pf.' in Gothic type. Below the plinth the Altenburg arms medallion is flanked by the inscription 'Spiel der vier Unter.' |
