Zeichnet die fünfte Kriegsanleihe (Živnostenská banka, Prague)
A mailed knight in a white tabard with a black double-headed eagle swings a sword overhead before a heraldic banner, over the German text 'Zeichnet die fünfte Kriegsanleihe'. The tell is the medieval warrior and imperial eagle: chivalric prestige and the state's emblem are attached to a bank's bond subscription, with no rate or term shown.
