| Obverse lettering | 50 PF VEREINIGUNG ZUR KUNSTPFLEGE LÜBECK GÜLTIG BIS 30 OKTOBER 1921 GRÖNING |
| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bold Expressionist woodcut vignette occupying the full face within a thin ruled border, rendered in black on cream paper with grey tonal areas. The vignette depicts the iconic Holstentor, Lübeck's medieval brick gate, with its two massive conical-roofed round towers flanking a central arch, rendered in a stark silhouette style with white-line detailing on the arcaded facades and pointed Gothic church spires rising behind. The caption 'HOLSTENTOR' is inscribed in small capitals at the lower left of the vignette. |
