| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national emblem of Sri Lanka depicted in full heraldic detail at centre, featuring a golden lion passant holding a sword, set within a circular field bordered by a decorative ring of traditional petals and an outer wreath of lotus flowers and leaves. A Dhamma Chakra (eight-spoked wheel) appears at the apex of the emblem, flanked by sprigs of lotus on either side. At the base, a pot of plenty (purna kalasha) rests on a platform flanked by the national flowers, the whole design rendered in high relief against the smooth aluminium field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sri Lanka's aluminium 10-cent issue came about following the country's switch from the earlier copper-nickel composition — a cost-driven decision that reflected broader pressures on small-denomination coinage across South and Southeast Asia during the late 1970s. Aluminium's low density made the 23mm planchet noticeably light relative to its size, which contributed to persistent public distrust of the coins in everyday commerce. Vending machine operators, in particular, found the pieces unreliable due to their poor conductivity and low mass.
