| Beschrijving voorzijde | The left panel carries a dark green guilloche underprint with the large denomination numerals '10' and the abbreviation 'Pfg.' rendered in bold Gothic blackletter type. The right panel presents a line-engraved vignette of the Roda town hall with its distinctive tower, flanked by the town name 'Roda' and the abbreviation 'S.-A.' above. A green-bordered numeral box at lower right repeats the value '10', and the lower margin carries the validity clause, issue date of 1 September 1920, and the manuscript signature of the Stadtrat. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The left panel repeats the bold Gothic '10 Pfg.' denomination on a dark green guilloche ground, mirroring the obverse layout. The right panel is divided into two registers: the upper section bears the text 'Notgeld der Stadt Roda S.-A.' alongside a circular town arms vignette with a stylised tower motif, while the lower section presents a woodcut-style illustration of a goat peering through a wooden fence, an image emblematic of the local Notgeld artistic tradition. |

Roda — today Rodewisch? No, this is Roda in the Altenburg district of Thuringia, a small industrial town that issued its own emergency paper in 1920 as the postwar coin shortage dragged on well past the armistice. German municipalities had been authorised to fill the small-denomination vacuum from 1916 onward, and by 1920 thousands of Gemeinden and Städte had done exactly that, producing a flood of Kleingeldersatz that collectors now call Notgeld.
Roda's issues are minor in the Notgeld hierarchy — no elaborate series, no tourist-targeted pictorial sets of the kind that Burg and Bielefeld churned out. Strictly functional municipal paper, printed in modest quantities for local retail use.
