Obverse description Crowned effigy of King George VI facing left, wearing the Tudor Crown, engraved in a restrained and precise style by Percy Metcalfe. The king's bare neck and well-defined facial profile are rendered with fine detail. The engraver's initials 'PM' appear in the field below the truncation. The circular legend reads 'GEORGE VI KING AND EMPEROR OF INDIA' around the periphery, separated by a raised dot, with the inscription running from lower left to lower right. A beaded border frames the entire design.

Reverse description The large bold numeral '10' dominates the centre of the reverse, with horizontal engine-turned line engraving filling the interior of the digits. The denomination 'CENTS' is inscribed in capital letters directly below the numeral. A circular dotted inner border separates the central device from the outer legend 'COMMISSIONERS OF CURRENCY MALAYA', which runs around the upper and lateral periphery. The date, flanked by decorative floral ornaments, appears at the bottom of the field. A beaded border surrounds the entire reverse design.
