| Obverse description | The central round hole is flanked by a pair of curved elephant tusks, their tips crossing elegantly above the perforation to form a distinctive decorative motif. The numeral '10' appears in the upper field above the hole, within the arc formed by the tusks. A raised inner ring frames the central design, while the outer legend 'GEORGIVS V REX ET IND:IMP: TEN CENTS' encircles the field, with the Heaton mintmark 'H' positioned below the 'N' of CENTS. The coin is bordered by a finely beaded rim. |
