| Obverse description | Central field displays the crowned royal arms of the Netherlands East Indies flanked by the fractional denomination '1/10 G' on either side. The date appears in the exergue below the shield, with a palm branch to the left and, where applicable, a mint letter to the right of the shield. The legend 'NEDERL. INDIE.' arcs along the upper periphery in Latin script. The overall design is rendered in a clean, neoclassical engraving style typical of Dutch colonial coinage of the period. |

| Obverse lettering | NEDERL. INDIE. 1/10 G 1942 S (Translation: Netherlands Indies) |
| Reverse description | The reverse is divided into two distinct inscription zones: an inner circle containing the denomination rendered in Malay in Arabic (Jawi) script across two lines, and a surrounding inscription along the rim bearing the equivalent value in Javanese script. The design is deliberately plain, with no figural elements, focusing attention entirely on the bilingual textual declaration of value. The contrast between the two scripts reflects the multilingual character of the Netherlands East Indies colonial monetary system. |
