The year 1900 introduced the "Germania" themed design to the German Empire. Using Anna Fuehring as a model, Germania was presented with both a sword and an olive branch. Thew lower denominations (2pf-20pf) were one color, while the higher denominations (25pf-80pf) were "bi-colored" with a black vignette, and sometimes on colored paper. |
