Blankenhain is a small town in the Weimar-district of Thuringia, and this 10 Pfennig note belongs to the vast wave of municipal Kleingeldersatz — small-change substitutes — that flooded German commerce in 1921 as coin shortages persisted well into the postwar period. Hundreds of German towns commissioned similar pieces from commercial printers, and H. Stürtz in Würzburg handled a significant volume of that regional demand.
The DeNG reference places this within a three-variant group (117.1-1/3), distinctions that typically reflect serial number ranges or minor typographic differences between print runs rather than substantive redesigns.
