| Obverse description | Plain typeset Notgeld coupon printed in black on cream paper, with a large grey underprint of the numeral '10' and 'Pfg.' spanning the central field. The issuer's name 'LANDGEMEINDE BROCKAU' arches across the top in bold serif capitals, followed by the payment obligation text in multiple lines of decreasing size, culminating in the denomination 'Zehn Pfg.' in large display type. Below a ruled border, the place and date 'Brockau, am 22. Oct. 1920' appear alongside a manuscript signature of the Gemeindevorstand, with a validity clause at the foot referencing redemption one month after public notice in the Brockauer Zeitung. |
