Two oval portrait vignettes flank the centre — a male figure at left and another at right — framing the Royal Bank of Canada coat of arms at centre, surmounted by a crown. The bank title 'THE ROYAL BANK OF CANADA' arches across the top, with the legend 'WILL PAY TO BEARER ON DEMAND' below it, and 'TEN DOLLARS' at the lower centre; red serial numbers and prefix letter 'D' appear at upper left and right. The date 'JAN. 2nd 1935' and 'MONTREAL' are inscribed at the bottom centre, flanked by two facsimile signatures.

Two ornate guilloche medallions bearing the numeral '10' are positioned at left and right. The bank title 'THE ROYAL BANK OF CANADA' runs along the top border, and 'TEN DOLLARS' appears along the lower border, all framed by a continuous repeating '10' lathe-work pattern.
