| Obverse description | Typographically rich Notgeld note printed in deep blue and red on cream paper, with a decorative scalloped border of stylized foliate motifs enclosing the entire composition. A large central diamond vignette carries the numeral '10' at top and bottom flanking the written denomination 'Zehn Pfennig' in Gothic blackletter script. The issuing authority text 'Gutschein der Stadtgemeinde' arcs across the upper field, while the lower portion bears two manuscript facsimile signatures over the date '31. März 1921' and the town name 'Hirschberg (Saale)' in ornate Gothic lettering. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a two-colour vignette in blue and red, dominated on the right by a panoramic landscape view of Hirschberg (Saale) circa 1800, with the hilltop castle, church spires, and valley rendered in fine line work. To the left, a tall ornate ceremonial cup or Pokal — identified as the city's honorary cup — is illustrated in detail with figural decoration, accompanied by the inscription recording its donation by Georg Maass, a Lower Austrian landscape administrator, in 1671. The denomination '10' appears in large numerals at lower right alongside the legend 'Gut für Zehn Pf.' |
