| Obverse description | The upper portion of the obverse carries an orange-tinted rectangular panel bearing the town name BAD HARZBURG and the validity text, flanked on either side by large white denomination numerals '10' against a dark border. Below, a humorous polychrome vignette in the Notgeld illustrative style — drawn by F. Jüttner — presents a woodland scene with mythological forest sprites (Schrate) frolicking and wrestling near a spring, with the captions 'Hier!' and 'Kradoquel' flanking the scene. The lower register contains a four-line rhyming verse in German and repeats the denomination '10 Pfennig' in each bottom corner, with the printer's imprint 'Druckerei Paul Rosdorff, Bad Harzburg' at the lower right. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is divided into three vertical panels in green and red tones. The two flanking panels each bear a large '10 Pfennig' denomination block at the top and, below, lively scenes of elegantly dressed spa visitors strolling along arcaded colonnades. The central panel presents a vignette of the Krodo spring fountain set within an arched architectural niche adorned with floral decoration, surrounded by promenading figures; an inscribed stone tablet on the fountain carries a poetic verse. The artist's signature 'F. Jüttner 21' appears at the lower right. |
