| Obverse description | The obverse features the Coat of Arms of Sri Lanka centrally positioned within the scalloped field. At the centre of the arms, a lion passant holding a sword is depicted on a pedestal, enclosed within a circular wreath of petals and concentric decorative rings. Flanking the base of the pedestal are two roundels, with a Dhamma Chakra (eight-spoked wheel) prominently placed at the top of the design. The overall composition is rendered in high relief against a plain field, with no inscriptions on this side. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the large numeral '10' prominently in the upper centre of the field, flanked by a decorative floral vine border running along the inner edge of the scalloped rim. Below the numeral, the denomination is inscribed in Sinhalese script ('සත දහය') and Tamil script ('பத்து சதம்'), followed by the Latin legend 'TEN CENTS'. The date '1975' appears at the base of the design. The multilingual inscription reflects Sri Lanka's official trilingual policy. |
