| 正面描述 | Olive-brown note with an ornate guilloche border enclosing a central vignette of a stylised Indochinese mythological creature — a winged, multi-headed beast rendered in a traditional decorative idiom — with the denomination numeral '10' repeated in circular cartouches at upper left and right. A beaded underprint medallion at centre carries the inscription '10 CENTS', flanked by facsimile signatures of the Trésorier Général and the Directeur des Finances. The lower panel bears the legend 'DIX CENTS' in bold letterpress, with the designer's credit 'PHAM-NGOC-KHUE' and the printer's imprint 'IDEO – HANOI' in the bottom margin. |

This note exists because Japanese occupation had severed French Indochina from metropolitan France, cutting off the usual supply of currency from Paris. The Imprimerie d'Extrême-Orient in Hanoi — primarily a government printing office — was pressed into banknote production out of necessity, not design. The result was locally sourced paper, locally cut plates, and a circulation piece that wore out quickly under tropical conditions.
Phạm Ngọc Khuê's involvement as designer is one of the few instances in this series where a Vietnamese national is credited on a French colonial issue. Survivors in any honest circulated grade are harder to find than the catalog frequency implies — the small format and cheap wartime paper combined badly.
