| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Olive-green Notgeld note printed on plain paper, with the denomination numeral '10' repeated in each corner as a pale underprint within guilloche cartouches bearing the legend 'STADT APOLDA'. A dense central guilloche medallion carries the denomination in large Gothic Fraktur script 'Zehn Mark', above which a three-line bearer text runs across the upper field. The date 'Apolda den 15. November 1918' appears below the medallion, followed by the issuing authority line and two manuscript signatures; a perfin cancellation is visible in the upper left area. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | Olive-green reverse printed in a single colour on plain paper, with the denomination '10' in diamond-framed guilloche panels at each corner. The central vignette is occupied by the elaborate heraldic arms of the Stadt Apolda — a quartered shield surmounted by a crested helm and supported by foliate mantling — rendered as a large pale underprint. The inscription 'ZEHN MARK' runs across the top and 'STADT APOLDA' across the lower field, while vertical side panels carry legal text in small Fraktur; a perfin cancellation is visible in the upper right area. |

Apolda's municipal treasury issued this note during the acute small-change shortage that gripped Germany in the final year of the First World War. Metal coinage had largely disappeared from circulation — copper, nickel, and zinc were all diverted to war production — leaving municipalities across the Reich to fill the gap with their own emergency paper, the so-called Notgeld.
The perfin security feature is characteristic of several Thuringian municipal issues of this period: a mechanical perforation pattern punched through the paper to deter counterfeiting without access to the printing equipment used by professional note issuers. Apolda was then known primarily as a center of the German stocking and knitwear industry, and the Stadtkasse operated with limited resources.
