| Beschrijving voorzijde | Printed in blue-grey ink on buff paper, the obverse is divided into two panels by a decorative border of repeated geometric rosettes. The left panel carries the denomination numeral '10' in a ruled box at upper left, the Gothic-script title 'Zehn Heller' across the top, the large legend 'Gutschein der Stadtgemeinde Melk a. d. Donau' in the centre, and two lines of small-print redemption text below, overlaid with a large pale green underprint of the numeral '10'; two manuscript signatures appear above a validity line and an anti-counterfeiting warning at the foot. The right panel contains a finely detailed letterpress vignette of Melk Abbey perched above the Danube, with a heraldic lion at lower right. |

| Opmerkingen |
Melk's Heller notgeld belongs to the vast wave of Austrian municipal emergency money issued between 1919 and 1921, when the postwar collapse of the Habsburg monetary system left small communities unable to obtain sufficient small-denomination coin. The Stadtgemeinde — the town council — assumed issuing authority by necessity, not by any formal banking mandate.
Melk was a minor issuer. Its pieces attract collectors primarily as part of comprehensive notgeld runs rather than on individual merit.
