| Obverse description | A Danish Nationalbank 10 Krone note of the Heilmann type, overprinted in red with the Faroese validation text and bearing a stamped signature authorising its use on the Faroe Islands. A royal crown appears at the top centre, flanked by the principal legends, with the denomination and bank inscriptions arranged across the face. The red overprint, applied in June 1940 under the authority of Færø Amt, distinguishes this emergency wartime issue from the standard Danish circulation note. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a central intaglio vignette of Mercury in profile, enclosed within an oval wreath, with wings visible at the base. Two rampant lions flank the upper corners atop elaborate foliate borders that frame the entire composition. The denomination numeral "10" appears at lower left and right, with the inscription "TI KRONER" across the bottom, all set against a multicolour guilloche underprint in blue and yellow. |
