| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is printed in monochromatic sepia and centers on a rectangular vignette of a river scene with traditional Chinese architecture — likely a walled city or temple complex — set upon a hillside above the water. Flanking the vignette are large ornate rosettes bearing the Chinese characters "拾圓" (10 Yuan), while smaller corner rosettes carry the provincial designation "青海" (Qinghai/Tsinghai). The upper border carries the inscription "財政廳維持券" (Bureau of Finance Maintenance Note) and the lower border reads "中華民國二十四年印" (Printed in the 24th Year of the Republic of China), with the entire composition enclosed within intricate guilloche work. |

| Opmerkingen |
Tsinghai (Qinghai) in the mid-1930s was among the most remote and administratively thin provinces in Republican China, and its Bureau of Finance issued notes largely to function within a local economy that had almost no connection to the central banking apparatus in Nanjing. The Peking Printing Company — a commercially contracted house rather than a government security printer — handled the job, which was the practical reality for many provincial authorities that lacked printing infrastructure of their own.
Survival rate is low, almost certainly a function of limited original print runs and poor storage conditions in the region rather than heavy circulation.
