The coat of arms of the Republic of The Gambia occupies the central field, depicting a shield charged with two crossed axes, supported by two rampant lions, one on each side. Surmounting the shield is a helmet bearing a decorative crest of foliage. A ribbon below the supporters bears the national motto in the legend, reading PROGRESS PEACE PROSPERITY. The circular legend REPUBLIC OF THE GAMBIA arcs along the upper periphery, while the date 1998 appears prominently in the lower field. |

A helmeted guineafowl (Numida meleagris) is depicted in left-facing profile, standing on a ground line that spans the lower central field, rendered in finely detailed relief. The denomination numeral 10 is inscribed across the upper field, flanked by the word BUTUTS arcing along the right periphery. Arabic script reading بُتُوتْ is inscribed along the left inner field. The overall composition is clean and uncluttered, with the bird as the dominant design element against a flat ground. |

The Gambia's post-independence coinage has gone through several distinct phases tied directly to the country's political turbulence. This issue postdates Yahya Jammeh's 1994 military coup, after which the newly styled Second Republic retained the dalasi system but gradually reshaped the coinage program. The brass-plated steel construction reflects the tight fiscal constraints on a country that was, at the time, under IMF structural adjustment conditions.
