Obverse description Cream-toned notgeld printed in dark red and green, with a chain-link guilloche border in green framing the face. The denomination "Zehn Millionen Mark" is set in large Gothic letterpress at the top in dark red, followed by a text block in smaller Gothic script detailing redemption terms and the issue date of 22 August 1923, together with the issuer name "Henschel & Sohn G.m.b.H." in bold type. The lower half carries a lithographic vignette of a steam locomotive with tender rendered in green against radiating lines evoking motion, with the printer's imprint of A.G. Wenderoth, Cassel, along the bottom margin.

A central heraldic vignette presents the coat of arms of Henschel & Sohn — a quartered shield with crescent and star motifs, surmounted by a winged crest bearing a standing smith figure with hammer, set within elaborate acanthus scrollwork. The denomination "10 Millionen Mark" appears in bold Gothic script within a solid green panel across the lower third, with a serial number to the right and the firm name "Henschel & Sohn G.m.b.H." inscribed in curved letterpress across the upper underprint field.
