| Reverse description | The face value '10 CENT' is prominently displayed in the central field. Six five-pointed stars are arranged around the denomination, each star symbolizing one of the six islands of the Netherlands Antilles. The design is clean and geometric, reflecting the modernist style characteristic of mid-twentieth-century Dutch colonial coinage. |

| Additional information |
Pattern coins for the Netherlands Antilles were produced at the Utrecht mint as the kingdom worked through proposed specifications for a unified island coinage. The 1969 nickel patterns in particular represent a transitional moment before final compositions and designs were locked in — most were struck in very small numbers for approval purposes and never formally released to circulation.
KM#Pn4 is among the rarer pattern designations for this territory. Surviving examples tend to appear in European specialist auctions rather than Caribbean regional sales.
