| Obverse description | Danish Nationalbank 10 Kroner note of the Heilmann Type III design, overprinted in red with the Faroese validation text and hand-signed by Hilbert. The note carries a royal crown at the top centre, with the main body of the Danish banknote visible beneath the overprint. The red overprint inscription confirms exclusive validity on the Faroe Islands, applied by Færø Amt in June 1940. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in brown on a cream ground and displays a central intaglio vignette of Mercury in profile, wearing a winged helmet, set within a laurel wreath oval. Two rampant lions flank the upper corners above the wreath, while a caduceus motif and ornamental foliage extend below the central portrait. A multicolour guilloche underprint in blue and yellow fills the field, with the denomination numeral "10" at lower left and right and the legend "TI KRONER" across the lower margin, all framed by a continuous laurel-leaf border. |
