| Obverse description | Tan and brown Notgeld voucher with a decorative oak-leaf border framing the entire note. The central panel carries the text "Gutschein der Gemeinde Alkoven über Zehn Heller" above a circular vignette portrait of a bearded male figure — identified by the caption below as Söflzabinger — flanked by crossed weapons. Denomination numerals "10" appear in circular cartouches at upper left and right, with the word "Heller" in rectangular panels beneath each; anti-counterfeiting text "Nachahmung wird gesetzlich bestraft" is inscribed at lower left, validity date at lower right, and the designer's credit "Entw. v. R. Standler" in the lower right corner. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a large central vignette rendered in brown ink, enclosed within a dotted oval border, illustrating an armed battle scene set among a wooded landscape — captioned below as the "Kampf im Emsinger Holz am 9. November 1626", a reference to a historical engagement during the Upper Austrian peasant uprising. The background field is filled with diagonal hatching and a floral oak-leaf outer border consistent with the obverse design, with small square ornaments at each corner. |
