| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | Orange note printed on an all-over geometric lozenge underprint, with the arms of Erkelenz in the upper left — a quartered shield bearing a lion and a wheel — flanking the large Gothic-script denomination '10 Pfennig' at centre. A serial number in bold serif type appears below the denomination, followed by three lines of Gothic-script text stating the note's acceptance conditions by local treasury offices, dated 'Erkelenz, den 30. August 1919', and closed by the issuing authority inscription 'Der Kreis-Ausschuß des Kreises Erkelenz' above three manuscript signatures. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | Orange reverse on the same geometric lozenge underprint, centred by a large circular vignette enclosing a standing female figure — the patron saint of Erkelenz — surrounded by oak-branch wreaths, with the Latin legend around the inner border. Flanking the central medallion are two smaller circles, each enclosing the bold numeral '10', positioned symmetrically at left and right. |

Erkelenz notgeld of this type was issued by the district committee (Kreis-Ausschuß) to plug the acute small-denomination coin shortage that gripped Germany from mid-war onward — the Imperial Treasury had progressively removed subsidiary coinage from circulation as the metal was diverted to war production. The Kreis-Ausschuß issues are administratively distinct from municipal notgeld: county-level authority rather than a single town, which gives the series a broader but thinner distribution pattern across the rural communities of the lower Rhine.
The Merkelbeck reference spans multiple sub-types across the 1918–1919 window, suggesting successive printings as demand continued past the armistice.
