| Obverse description | Left-facing effigy of King George V wearing the Imperial State Crown, with a draped and robed bust rendered in high relief after the portrait by Sir Edgar Bertram MacKennal. The legend encircles the effigy along the periphery, reading GEORGE V KING AND EMPEROR OF INDIA, separated by a beaded border from the reeded edge. The truncation of the bust is visible at the lower field, and fine detail is apparent in the royal robes and crown jewels. |

| Reverse description | The large numeral '10' dominates the central field in a bold, engine-turned style with horizontal line shading, enclosed within a beaded circular border. The issuer's name STRAITS SETTLEMENTS arcs across the upper portion of the outer legend, while TEN CENTS appears along the lower arc; the date is positioned at the lower right between the beaded circle and the toothed rim. The overall design is clean and utilitarian, with the denomination rendered prominently for ease of identification. |
