| Obverse description | The face value is prominently displayed at centre of the lozenge-oriented square field, reading 'BON' above the large numeral '10' followed by the denomination indicator 'C'. The issuer's legend encircles the design along all four edges of the piece, reading 'UNIONS C & I · ST. PIERRE S DIVES LIVAROT', referencing the Union Commerciale et Industrielle of the two Norman communes. The lettering is incuse and rendered in a plain, utilitarian sans-serif style characteristic of French wartime emergency issues. The overall composition is austere, with no ornamental devices or borders beyond the shaped planchet itself. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is uniface, displaying a completely plain, unadorned field with no legends, devices, or inscriptions of any kind. The surface retains the texture of the raw aluminium planchet, consistent with the emergency nature of this necessity issue. Faint circular impressions visible near the centre appear to be residual marks from the striking process rather than intentional design elements. |
