| Obverse description | Draped bust of Marianne, personification of the French Republic, facing left, wearing a Phrygian cap adorned with a ribbon, with long curled hair falling to the shoulder. The engraver's name 'Dupré' appears in small characters below the truncation. The legend 'REPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE' curves around the periphery, separated from the milled border by a plain field. |

| Reverse description | Denomination '10 CENTIMES' displayed in two lines at center, within a wreath of laurel and oak branches tied at the base with a ribbon, flanked by three small five-pointed stars along the lower arc. The republican motto 'LIBERTE EGALITE FRATERNITE' is distributed around the periphery between the wreath and the milled border, with a single star at the upper center above the wreath. The overall composition reflects the classicizing Republican aesthetic of the Dupré type. |
