| Beschrijving keerzijde | Printed entirely in red on a cream ground with a fine overall guilloche underprint. The issuer's name "Stadt Biebrich a. Rh." appears at the top in roman lettering flanked by arabesque rosette ornaments, while the Biebrich coat of arms — a rampant bear with key on a shielded escutcheon — occupies the centre within a symmetrical arrangement of six guilloche rosettes. Denomination numerals "10" in guilloche sunburst medallions appear at left and right, with "Gutschein über Zehn Mark." inscribed below, and the printer's imprint of August Osterrieth, Frankfurt a. M., running along the bottom margin; a diagonal overstamp reading "Ungültig" is applied across the face. |

Biebrich am Rhein was an independent municipality on the Rhine opposite Mainz when this note was issued in 1918 — it wouldn't be absorbed into Wiesbaden until 1926. Like hundreds of German towns during the final years of the First World War, the Magistrat stepped in with locally authorized Notgeld to compensate for the near-total disappearance of coin from circulation, as metal was requisitioned for the war effort.
August Osterrieth was a Frankfurt commercial printer, not a specialist currency house, which is exactly what you'd expect from emergency municipal issues of this period. Quality and design ambition varied enormously from one town's contract to the next.
