| Obverse description | Rose-pink guilloche underprint covers the entire note surface, over which the city arms of Buer — a shield with a tree and gate motif — is printed centrally in the lower half, flanked by a vignette of two allegorical figures. The denomination 'Zehn Millionen Mark' is set in large blackletter type across the centre, with the numeral value '10000000 Mark' appearing above it. Diagonal corner panels bear the repeated denomination '10 Millionen', and the issuance date 'den 11. August 1923' with the magistrate's authorisation appear at the foot. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is unprinted save for the show-through of the obverse letterpress text, which is visible in mirror image through the thin emergency-issue paper. No independent design elements, vignettes, or inscriptions are present on this side, consistent with the single-sided printing practice common to German Notgeld emergency currency of the 1923 hyperinflationary period. |
