| Reverse description | The Imperial German Coat-of-Arms, featuring a crowned eagle with spread wings and an anchor superimposed on its breast, is centrally displayed in the field. The denomination '10 CENT' and the date '1909' flank the arms on either side. A continuous Latin legend 'DEUTSCH. KIAUTSCHOU GEBIET' arcs around the upper portion of the design, identifying the issuing territory. The entire motif is enclosed within a milled border, lending the reverse a formal, heraldic character consistent with Imperial German colonial coinage. |
