Obverse description Plain field enclosed by a continuous pearl border running along the inner rim. The issuer's name and location are presented entirely in raised Latin lettering arranged in a circular legend reading GEBR. KNIPPING G.M.B.H. around the upper arc and ALTENA along the lower arc, separated by raised pellet stops. The central field is unadorned, lending the token a stark, utilitarian character typical of German notgeld emergency coinage of the World War I era.

Reverse description Plain field enclosed by a continuous pearl border along the inner rim, mirroring the obverse. The denomination numeral 10 is boldly struck in large raised figures and dominates the entire central field, rendered in a serif typeface. No additional inscriptions, symbols, or devices appear on this face, reflecting the purely functional design philosophy of industrial notgeld tokens issued during the German currency shortage of the World War I period.
