| Reverse description | The reverse presents a schematic map of the southern Baltic Sea coast (OSTSEE) with four Hanseatic cities — Stralsund, Rostock, Greifswald, and Wismar — each identified by name and illustrated with a representative landmark in fine relief: a Gothic cathedral complex for Stralsund, a lighthouse and modern building for Rostock, a stepped-gable civic building for Greifswald, and a domed pavilion for Wismar. The mintmark and fineness designation EM999 appear in the lower exergue. |
