| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed commemorative design honoring aviation pioneer Otto Lilienthal, featuring a large depiction of his biplane hang glider with a figure suspended beneath the wings in flight attitude, rendered in fine relief in the lower central field. Above, a soaring bird in flight is shown alongside schematic aerodynamic diagrams with dashed arrows illustrating principles of lift, referencing Lilienthal's study of bird flight as the basis for his glider designs. A facsimile signature reading Otto Lilienthal appears in script in the mid-field. The legend LILIENTHAL GLIDER 1894 curves along the upper border within a dotted inner circle, and the issue year 2010 is inscribed at the bottom. |
