| Reverse description | An allegorical female figure in flowing robes strides dynamically to the left over a stylized sea, brandishing aloft a large German imperial war flag that billows behind her. A radiant rising sun emerges from the horizon at lower left. The legend 'OSTAFRIKA' appears vertically along the left border, and the dates '1889-90.' are inscribed vertically along the right border. The maker's name 'OTTO OERTEL' appears in small lettering in the lower exergue. |
