The legend CHARLES III flanks the portrait on the left, NIUE appears above, and TEN DOLLARS arcs along the right, all in incuse lettering around the periphery. The date 2026 is inscribed below the portrait, flanked by two raised dots, and the engraver's initials JC appear on the truncation. The design is rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. |

| Reverse description | A hawksbill sea turtle depicted in an ornate Māori-inspired koru and spiral motif design, occupying nearly the full field of the coin as it appears to swim toward the viewer. The carapace and flippers are richly decorated with interlocking swirls and geometric patterning evoking traditional Pacific tattoo art, set against a background of fine radiating lines suggesting water or movement. The legend HAWKSBILL TURTLE is inscribed in two words along the upper periphery, and the fineness and weight inscription 1/10 OZ 9999 FINE GOLD appears in a straight line along the lower exergue. |
