This issue honors the 125th anniversary of German writer Erich Kästner (1899-1974), known throughout Germany for his humorous and melancholy poems and his books for children and youth, which are considered timeless classics.

Emil Erich Kästner was a German author, poet, screenwriter and satirist, known primarily for his humorous, socially astute poems and for children's books including Emil and the Detectives and Lisa and Lottie. He is one of the most translated authors of the 20th century. He was not only a writer, but also a lyricist, publicist, screenwriter and cabaret poet, among other things.

The obverse shows the author in profile in the later years of his life and links the line drawing with an architecturally structured stack of books, which contains his best-known children's novels alongside the book of his life (1899-1974) and is effectively emphasised by the color scheme. Together with a pair of children reading in the foreground, the composition perfectly emphasises the timeless, cross-generational significance of his work..

The reverse has the German eagle, the words “BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND”, the value and denomination, the letter “D” for the Munich Mint, the year 2024, and the twelve stars of Europe.
