Reverse description The reverse presents a detailed woodcut-style vignette of the Ehrenhof (Court of Honour) of the Leuchtenburg memorial complex, rendered in fine crosshatched lines with a nocturnal sky above a panoramic view of the castle courtyard, church tower, and surrounding rooftops. Flanking the central architectural scene are oak and laurel branches, each terminating at the lower corners in a red heraldic shield bearing six-pointed stars in white, representing the arms of Kahla. A scroll banner at the top carries the inscription 'Ehrenhof' and a lower cartouche reads 'des Leuchtenburg-Ehrenmals'.
