Obverse description The copper-nickel centre depicts a standing ancient Greek or Roman column rising above a field of scattered architectural ruins and stone fragments, evoking the archaeological heritage of Cyprus. The brass outer ring is decorated with twelve evenly spaced fleur-de-lis ornaments arranged around the full circumference. The curved legend 'ESSAI - PATTERN - PROBE' arcs across the upper portion of the inner field, denoting the piece's trial or pattern status in three languages. The date '2010' appears in the lower field of the centre. The overall design references the classical antiquity associated with the Sovereign Base Areas of Akrotiri and Dhekelia.
