Obverse description The central vignette, rendered in blue and orange letterpress, presents three male figures seated around a table in a rustic inn interior, with beer glasses before them and a hanging lantern at left, set within an oval frame inscribed 'Bärenjagd Bild 1' and captioned below 'Wie fangen wir den Bären?'. The large denomination numeral '10' and 'Pfg' appear at the top centre against an orange triangular field, flanked by stylised lightning-bolt ornaments. The upper margin carries a Low German verse in cursive script, while the lower margin bears the issuing authority inscription and two manuscript signatures.

Reverse description The reverse displays a decorative vignette at left of wild meadow flowers, grasses, and a butterfly rendered in fine line work with orange highlights, set against a pale blue landscape with a distant church silhouette. At upper left the inscription 'Reutergeld der Stadt' appears in Gothic cursive script. To the right, the large numeral '10' and 'Pfennig' are integrated into a bold diagonal sweep, beneath which the town name 'Marlow' is set in large blackletter type; an orange heraldic shield bearing a double-headed eagle is positioned at centre right, with the designer's name 'Richard Zscheked' inscribed below it.
