St Michael's church is one of Hamburg's five main Protestant churches (Hauptkirchen) and the most famous church in the city. It is dedicated to the archangel Michael and a large bronze statue, standing above the portal of the church shows the archangel conquering the devil.
The name of the federal State 'HAMBURG' is inscribed beneath the church. To the right of the church are the engraver's stylised initials 'OE' and above it towards the top centre the mintmark ('A', 'D', 'F', 'G' or 'J'). The outer ring has the year of issue inscribed at the top, six stars on each side and below them the words 'BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND'.
