| Reverse description | Denomination and date inscribed in three lines across the centre of the field: '10' above 'BATZEN' above '1809', all enclosed within a wreath of oak branches tied at the base with a small bow, the whole surrounded by a beaded border. The design is clean and unadorned, emphasising the typographic value statement in a classically restrained early nineteenth-century style. |
