| Reverse description | A central sheaf of rice or wheat stalks rises vertically, dividing the denomination numeral '10' on the left from the abbreviation 'CENT.' on the right, all set in bold relief against a plain field. The circular legend INDOCHINE FRANÇAISE arcs around the upper periphery within a beaded border, while the lower rim is similarly decorated. The composition is stark and functional, with the agricultural motif underscoring the colonial economic context of the issue. |
