Brown letterpress on white paper. The title inscription in Gothic blackletter script runs across the top, with the validity date below. To the left, the denomination numeral '10' appears in a ruled rectangular frame above the word 'Heller' in large Gothic type, with an anti-counterfeiting warning and the Bürgermeister's manuscript signature beneath. The right portion is occupied by a finely engraved landscape vignette within a dotted border, showing a hilltop village with a church tower set among rolling fields and scattered farm buildings. |

Obritzberg is a small village in Lower Austria, and this 10 Heller note is a product of the Notgeld wave that swept Austrian municipalities during and after World War One, when small-denomination coinage vanished from circulation almost entirely due to hoarding and metal requisitioning. Thousands of Gemeinden across Austria issued their own emergency scrip, most printed by regional firms — Sommer in St. Pölten being a typical provincial contractor for this area.
The Jaksch/Pick JPR series catalogues these Austrian local issues systematically, though surviving examples from tiny communities like Obritzberg remain genuinely scarce simply because print runs were small and redemption was expected to be total.
