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.
