| Obverse description | Central field bears the heraldic shield of Northeim depicting three towers — a taller central tower flanked by two shorter lateral towers — all rendered in fine hatched relief, characteristic of civic notgeld coinage. The shield is surrounded by a beaded inner border. The circular legend reading STADT NORTHEIM I / HANNOVER arcs around the periphery, with the date 1918 flanked by two ring ornaments (◉) appearing at the base. The overall design conveys municipal authority through its use of the city arms as the primary motif. |

| Reverse description | The central field displays the large bold numeral 10 in high relief, serving as the dominant design element. Below the numeral, the denomination PFENNIG is inscribed in capital letters across the lower field, flanked by small dot ornaments at either side. The upper arc of the coin bears the legend KRIEGSNOTGELD (war emergency money) curving along the inner beaded border, identifying the piece as wartime necessity coinage. A small decorative arrow or dash motif appears at the very base of the field beneath PFENNIG. The outer rim is defined by a milled or scalloped border consistent with the obverse. |
