| Obverse description | A fine pearl border frames the coin's perimeter, within which a circular legend reading 'BAD BLANKENBURG THÜRINGER WALD' surrounds the large, bold denomination numeral '10' prominently centered in the field. A small six-pointed star appears at the top of the legend, serving as a divider. The overall design is stark and utilitarian, characteristic of German notgeld emergency coinage of the early Weimar period. |

The subject is depicted in early 19th-century civilian dress, wearing a high collar and cravat, with his gaze directed straight ahead. The legend 'FRIEDRICH FRÖBEL' is inscribed in a curved arc along the lower portion of the field, beneath the bust. |
