| Obverse description | Central field bears the large denomination numeral '10' accompanied by the abbreviation 'Pf.' rendered in bold relief, with the date '1920' inscribed below within a recessed inner circle bordered by a raised ring. The circumferential legend '∙BAD∙HOMBURG∙VOR∙DER∙HOEHE∙' encircles the design in Latin capitals between the outer raised rim and the inner border, with raised dot separators between words. The overall design is plain and utilitarian, characteristic of German Notgeld emergency coinage of the early Weimar Republic period. |

| Reverse description | Central field features the civic arms of Bad Homburg vor der Höhe: a heraldic shield bearing a saltire (diagonal cross) on a horizontally hatched background, surmounted by a mural crown rendered in relief at the upper edge of the shield. The shield is set within a plain recessed field, enclosed by a raised inner ring and an outer milled rim. The reverse carries no legend, presenting a stark, functional design consistent with Weimar-era municipal emergency coinage. |
