| Obverse description | Green letterpress note on cream paper, enclosed within a decorative scalloped border, with architectural vignettes of the Gothic-spired Sint-Gertrudiskerk at left and the municipal town hall at right flanking a central circular guilloche medallion bearing the denomination numeral '10' above the abbreviation 'CMEN'. The issuer's name 'GEMEENTE WETTEREN' arches across the top margin. A serial number panel in black occupies the foot of the design, with the facsimile signatures of the Secretary and the Burgomaster printed beneath their respective titles. |

| Reverse description | Green letterpress reverse structured by a geometric framework of ruled borders that divide the field into a central panel and four corner blocks, each corner carrying the denomination '10 CMEN'. The date '1918' heads the central panel, beneath which a ribbon cartouche reads 'TIEN CENTIEMEN'; below this, the municipal coat of arms — a robed standing figure holding a crozier within a heraldic shield — is set between the words 'GEMEENTE' and 'WETTEREN'. The lower portion carries the redemption clause 'BETAALBAAR TER GEMEENTEKAS', with the anti-counterfeiting warning 'NAMAAK WORDT STRENG GESTRAFT' running along the bottom margin. |
