Obverse description Plain field dominated by the large bold numeral '10' at centre, with the abbreviation 'PF.' inscribed beneath. The circular legend 'STADT GILGENBURG OSTPR.' runs along the upper periphery, while the date '1918' appears along the lower periphery, flanked on each side by a raised dot serving as a separator. The design is entirely typographic, with no pictorial motifs, executed in a utilitarian style characteristic of German wartime Notgeld coinage.

Reverse description Plain field featuring the large bold numeral '10' prominently at centre. The upper portion of the peripheral legend reads 'KRIEGSGELD 1918', while 'PFENNIG' is inscribed along the lower periphery. Two six-pointed stars serve as separators flanking the lower legend on either side, lending a modest decorative accent to an otherwise purely functional design consistent with World War I German municipal emergency coinage.
