| Beschrijving voorzijde | This Doppelschein (double-note) is printed on a single sheet perforated for separation into two 10 Pfennig halves. The left half carries a vignette of an industrial interior scene — likely a textile or weaving workshop — rendered in warm ochre and green tones within a dashed border, with corner numerals '10' and an oval cartouche inscribed 'In Pößneck gemacht.' The right half shows a yellow-green guilloche underprint with a central diamond-shaped ornamental medallion bearing the denomination '10 Pf', flanked by facsimile signatures of the Magistrat und Gemeinderat, with a blue lower panel carrying the city arms of Pößneck and the inscription 'Notgeld der Stadt Pößneck'. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents the complementary Doppelschein layout: the left half mirrors the right obverse half, with a yellow-green guilloche field, central diamond ornament bearing '10 Pf', facsimile signatures, and the blue lower panel with the Pößneck city arms and 'Notgeld der Stadt Pößneck'. The right half carries a brown-toned vignette illustrating two figures in period dress associated with the local porcelain industry, flanking a large circular guilloche rosette with a central '10 Pf' denomination disc, with the inscription 'Pößnecker Porzellan' along the right margin. |

| Opmerkingen |
Pößneck was a textile and porcelain manufacturing town in Thuringia, and its 1921 Kleingeldscheine were issued precisely because the Imperial and Weimar-era coinage had effectively vanished from circulation — hoarded, melted, or exported as metal values outpaced face values. Municipalities across Germany were issuing their own fractional paper in these years simply to keep local commerce moving.
A print run of over twelve million for a single 20 Pfennig denomination from a small provincial town is unusually high and suggests the notes circulated well beyond Pößneck itself, absorbed into the broader regional small-change economy of Thuringia.
