| Obverse description | The left third of the note is occupied by a Gothic arch vignette enclosing a full-length figure of a robed saint — identifiable by the scroll inscription 'PATRONUS SANCTUS QUI' — rendered in a medieval woodcut style with fine crosshatching against a dark ground. The right field, printed in black and ochre on a stippled underprint, carries the denomination text in Fraktur blackletter script with foliate scroll ornaments framing numerals '10' in the lower corners, the issuing authority, date '1.6.1921', and a manuscript signature above the legend '1. Bürgermeister'. A two-line verse in Gothic script runs across the upper margin. |

| Reverse description | The entire reverse is occupied by a panoramic woodcut-style landscape vignette in black and warm ochre, rendered with fine engraved line work, presenting a sweeping view of the Tegernsee lake set against the Bavarian Alps, with a village church and settlement visible in the lower right foreground among trees. The place name 'Tegernsee' is inscribed in Gothic script at the upper right, while a decorative cartouche in the lower left carries the denomination '10 Pfg.' The artist's signature 'E.E. Heinsdorff' appears in the lower right corner of the vignette. |
