Obverse description The central vignette presents a stylised Art Deco flower rendered in blue, red, and grey, its petals forming sweeping leaf-like fronds radiating outward from a stem; at the flower's centre sits a circular medallion bearing a blue letter 'M' on a dark ground surrounded by red petals. The denomination '10 M' appears in bold black letterpress within decorative cartouches at upper left and upper right, framed by vertical side panels carrying the note's redemption conditions. A lower panel inscribed 'MIAMA 1922 MAGDEBURG DAS DIREKTORIUM' carries two manuscript facsimile signatures.

Reverse description The central panel carries a full-colour lithographic vignette of the newly opened Sternbrücke (Star Bridge) over the Elbe at Magdeburg, with a steam tugboat passing beneath the iron arch bridge and a flat-bottomed barge in the foreground; the city skyline with church towers is visible in the distance under a cloudy sky. Vertical side panels in blue and grey bear a split motto in black letterpress, and the Magdeburg municipal coat of arms — a tower gateway in red — appears at lower left and lower right. A captioned panel at the base identifies the subject in two lines.
