| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse, printed in the same amber-orange and black color scheme, presents a central oval vignette enclosed within baroque acanthus scroll borders, containing a finely rendered image of a woman in traditional peasant dress seated at a spinning wheel. Diamond-shaped denomination panels bearing the numeral '10' flank the oval on each side, while vertical black bands along both lateral edges carry the inscriptions 'KREIS SCHWEINITZ' reading upward and downward respectively. A two-line folk proverb in Gothic script runs across the lower portion of the note beneath the vignette. |

| Anmerkungen |
Kreissparkasse Herzberg (Elster) was one of hundreds of German district savings banks that resorted to issuing small-denomination Notgeld in 1920 when the chronic shortage of low-value coinage — accelerated by wartime metal requisitioning and postwar hoarding — made commercial transactions at the retail level genuinely unworkable. The Kreis-level institutions had no formal currency-issuing authority, but municipal and district emergency money existed in a legal grey zone that the Reichsbank tacitly tolerated until centralized coinage supply normalized.
At this size, the notes were handled constantly and discarded once redeemed. Survivors in any condition are more the product of collector interception than organic preservation.
