| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in a soft violet-blue tone and displays a large central lozenge-shaped guilloche panel bearing the numeral '10' at its centre, flanked by the inscriptions 'BANCO DE PORTUGAL' to the left and right. A fine lace-like scalloped border frames the entire reverse, with repeated denomination numerals integrated into the surrounding guilloche underprint. The design is entirely typographic and geometric, with no figurative imagery, and exhibits cancel-punch perforations consistent with the obverse. |
