Obverse description Green-tinted Notgeld on cream stock, with a central vignette of the hotel building rendered in fine letterpress against a light green underprint; the denomination numeral '10' in large Gothic script appears to each side of the vignette, each followed by 'Pfg.' A six-pointed Star of David occupies each upper corner, with the issuer inscription 'Hoffmanns Hotel Falk Norderney' in ornate Fraktur lettering across the top. Two lateral columns of small-print text flank the lower portion of the vignette, while the validity clause 'Gültig bis 1. Oktober 1922' and the founding note 'Stammhaus gegründet 1844' are printed along the lower margin in bold Fraktur.

Reverse description Uncoloured cream-white reverse, entirely typeset in Fraktur script without an underprint. A small vignette at top centre shows a dove in flight against radiating sunbeams. The denomination '10 Pfg.' appears in a diamond-shaped cartouche at each corner, while the central field carries a ten-line promotional poem in praise of Norderney and the establishment, enclosed within a decorative scalloped border.
Reverse lettering Hast Du gebadet in der salz'gen Flut
und hast zurückgewonnen neuen Lebensmut
hast Dich bestrahlen lassen von der Sonne
und atmest Seeluft voller Wonne
dann stärk' bei Hoffmann Dir den Magen
dort wird's Dir sicherlich behagen.
Kehrst Du dann heim in's Alltagseinerlei
Denk froh zurück an's schöne Norderney
Laß schallen Deine Lobeslieder
und – kehre wieder!
