Obverse description Cream-toned notgeld with a decorative outer border in brown-red. The denomination '10' appears in bold at upper left and upper right corners, with the large script legend 'Zehn Pfennig' spanning the upper portion. At centre, a large red circular wax-seal vignette bears the arms of Ronneburg and the date 1614, surrounded by the legend 'RONNEBURG'. The issuing text 'Gutschein der Stadt Ronneburg Thür.' appears to the lower left, with the issue date 'Ronneburg den 1 Mai 1921' and the manuscript signature of the Stadtrat (Lutze) to the right. A two-column verse in German occupies the lower panel.

Reverse description The reverse presents a detailed letterpress vignette of the 'Unteres Tor' (Lower Gate) of Ronneburg as it appeared circa 1717, with a street scene of flanking timber-framed buildings receding into perspective beneath a clouded sky. The city arms — a quartered shield with a rampant lion — appear in the upper left corner within a frame. The denomination '10' is repeated at upper right and '10 Pfg.' at lower right, all set against a wavy guilloche underprint filling the margins. The printer's imprint 'Kunstanstalt Gerth & Oppenrieder Gera-Haus.' appears in small text at the lower right margin.
