| Obverse description | Yellow-toned Kriegs-Notgeld (wartime emergency note) printed in black letterpress on a fine guilloche underprint. The denomination 'Zehn Pfennig' is set in large blackletter type across the upper half, flanked by numeral '10' at lower left and right. A central text block bears the issuer name 'Vorschuss- u. Sparverein zu Ostheim v. d. Rhön' with date 'Ostheim v.d. Rhön, 1. Nov. 1918', above a manuscript facsimile signature; a redemption clause in small blackletter type runs along the lower margin. The note is enclosed by a decorative scalloped and dotted double-rule border, with the printer's imprint 'Keyßner'sche Hofbuchdruckerei Meiningen' below the frame. |

| Reverse description | White-ground reverse printed in black, divided into three vertical panels by ruled borders with interlaced guilloche side panels. The central panel contains a detailed woodcut-style vignette of the historic townscape of Ostheim v. d. Rhön, showing the medieval fortified church complex with its characteristic towers and rooftops. The denomination numerals '10' and the inscription 'Pfennig' appear at the top of each lateral panel above the town arms — a heraldic shield bearing a castle gate with a rampant lion — repeated symmetrically at lower left and right. The place name 'Ostheim' is inscribed in blackletter above the central vignette. |
