| Beschrijving voorzijde | Letterpress-printed note on cream paper with an all-over dark green honeycomb guilloche underprint covering the entire field. At upper right, the denomination '10 Zehn Pfennig' is set in large blackletter (Fraktur) gothic type. To the left, a rectangular white panel edged by a thin border contains an affixed orange 10-Pfennig postage stamp serving as the embedded security medium, with the legend 'Inliegend 10 Pfg.-Marke' printed below it in bold gothic lettering. A central text panel states the validity condition and issuer details, with 'Rückseite beachten' and 'Gesetzlich geschützt' noted at the lower margin. |

| Opmerkingen |
Hans Gaertner was a Magdeburg merchant or business proprietor who issued this note during the height of the small-denomination Notgeld wave, when the German Reichsbank's coin shortage left retailers no practical alternative but to print their own change. The Pansa'sche Buchdruckerei was a local Magdeburg press, making this an entirely regional production — printed, issued, and presumably spent within a few city blocks.
The embedded postage stamp as a security feature is the detail worth noting. By incorporating an actual stamp into the note's construction, Gaertner tied its value to a state-backed instrument while simultaneously making counterfeiting impractical for anyone without access to genuine postal material.
