| Obverse description | At left, a coloured vignette within a cartouche bordered in red and grey shows an armoured knight bearing a sword and shield with a lion device — the municipal arms of Königsee. To the right, the denomination '10 Pfennig' is set in large Gothic letterpress type beneath the issuing authority legend in an ornate script. A serial number appears at lower left, with two facsimile signatures — those of the Stadtrat and the Bürgermeister — at lower right. The issue date 'Königsee i. Thür., am 1. Januar 1921' is printed in the lower centre. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in polychrome letterpress and presents a whimsical folk-art scene: a gnome-like figure with an exaggerated beard, wearing a wreath of flowers and carrying a bundle of herbs and a walking staff, strides across a wooded landscape. To the right, a decorative oval cartouche contains a four-line German verse in Gothic script, flanked by conifer trees and a small labelled apothecary jar. The denomination '10 Pfg.' appears on a banner scroll at the top, and the printer's imprint 'Aug. Heinecke, Rudolstadt' is printed at lower left. |
