| Beschrijving voorzijde | The left half of the note is occupied by a fine letterpress vignette of the Mank parish church, its distinctive onion-domed tower rising above a surrounding landscape of trees and a low fence. The right panel carries the denomination numeral '10' in a ruled cartouche at upper right, followed by the value inscription 'Zehn Heller' in Gothic blackletter, the word 'Gutschein' in larger Gothic script, and the issuing authority 'der Marktgemeinde Mank' below. A liability clause, anti-counterfeiting warning, issuance date of 15 June 1920, and two manuscript facsimile signatures of the Vizebürgermeister and Bürgermeister appear in the lower text panel, all enclosed within a decorative square-motif border. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The upper portion of the reverse is dominated by a central oval vignette set against a horizontally lined background, enclosing a detailed landscape scene with a large rock formation or cave entrance sheltering an animal — likely a bear or similar creature — amid foliage and wildflowers. The numeral '10' appears in solid dark square cartouches at each of the four corners. A rectangular text panel in the lower third, framed by a scrollwork border, carries the redemption notice stating the total issue of 30,000 Kronen redeemable at the Marktkassa until 15 December 1920. The outer border consists of a continuous ornamental chain motif. |

Mank is a small market town in Lower Austria, and this 10 Heller note is a product of the Notgeld emergency — the acute small-change shortage that swept Austria in the years immediately following the First World War. Municipal and local authorities across Austria issued their own low-denomination paper scrip because metal coinage had effectively vanished from everyday commerce, hoarded or melted down during the war years.
The Jaksch/Pick reference places this within the vast Austrian local Notgeld corpus — catalogued but rarely studied in depth. Survival rates for these small-town issues vary considerably; Mank's output was modest, and the notes were redeemed and withdrawn once the national currency stabilized in the early 1920s.
