| Beschrijving voorzijde | 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. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Olive-green reverse printed in a single colour on plain paper, with the denomination '10' in diamond-framed guilloche panels at each corner.

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.
