| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in dark blue-black on a tan diagonal-ruled guilloche underprint. A circular vignette at centre bears the crowned lion of the Libau municipal coat of arms within a dotted border. The issuer's title in ornate Cyrillic letterpress script — «ЛИБАВСКОЕ ГОРОДСКОЕ САМОУПРАВЛЕНІЕ» — arches across the top, flanked by the numeral «10» in the upper corners. Two dark octagonal panels at lower left and lower right carry the denomination «10 Коп.» and «10 Сор.» respectively, with the legend «РАЗМѢННЫЙ ЗНАКЪ» appearing to either side of the central vignette and the anti-counterfeiting warning «ПОДДѢЛКА КАРАЕТСЯ ПО УГОЛОВНЫМЪ ЗАКОНАМЪ» printed below it. |

| Reverse description | The reverse repeats the same typographic and vignette design as the obverse, with the crowned lion of Libau's municipal arms centred within a circular border, the issuer's title in elaborate Cyrillic script across the top, and the denomination cartouches «10 Коп.» and «10 Сор.» at lower left and right. The overall composition is rendered in dark blue-black over the same tan guilloche underprint, though the reverse impression appears slightly lighter in tone. The anti-counterfeiting warning is again printed beneath the central vignette. |
