| Obverse description | Central field bears a crowned municipal coat of arms of Abensberg, displaying a shield with heraldic devices, surrounded by a beaded border. The circular legend 'STADTGEMEINDE ABENSBERG' arcs around the upper portion of the coin, with the date '1917' positioned at the bottom. A small round hole is pierced near the lower rim, characteristic of this Notgeld issue. The overall design is struck in low relief on a plain zinc flan, with a simple dotted border framing the entire composition. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the large numeral '10' in bold relief at the center of the field, serving as the primary denomination indicator. The word 'NOTGELD' arcs along the upper legend, while 'PFENNIG' is inscribed along the lower portion, together identifying this as an emergency currency issue. A beaded border encircles the design, and a small round hole is punched near the lower rim, mirroring the obverse. The fields are plain and unadorned, reflecting the utilitarian nature of wartime Notgeld coinage. |
