| Beschrijving voorzijde | The upper portion is occupied by a woodcut-style vignette in dark brown and olive-green tones, portraying an elderly woman resting against a large rock amid a forest, the trees rendered in bold linear strokes characteristic of German Notgeld pictorial design. At lower left, the denomination numeral '10' appears in large bold type within a dark panel with 'Pfennig' inscribed below; to the right, the issuing text is set in Gothic Fraktur script identifying the note as a Gutschein of the Höhenluftkurort Benneckenstein in the Südhochharz, issued by the Magistrat in July 1921, with a facsimile signature beneath. |

| Opmerkingen |
Benneckenstein is a small town in the Harz mountains, and like hundreds of German municipalities in 1921, its local Magistrat issued Kleingeldscheine to address the chronic small-denomination coin shortage that persisted well after the armistice. These notes were never legal tender in any formal sense — they were accepted locally by convention and necessity, their value backed by nothing more than civic trust and the assumption that the issuing authority would eventually redeem them.
The DeNG reference places this within a well-catalogued series, suggesting at least two known types for this value from Benneckenstein.
