| Reverse description | A highly detailed proof-quality depiction of Saruman the White, the iconic villain from J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, rendered in a frosted cameo finish against a mirror-polished gold field. The character is shown in a three-quarter frontal pose, bearing his staff with a distinctive forked upper end, dressed in flowing robes, with long white hair and beard. Decorative Maori-inspired koru scrollwork frames the design in the upper arc of the field. The denomination $10 appears prominently in the lower central field, with the inscriptions MIDDLE-EARTH - NEW ZEALAND arcing along the upper legend and the copyright notice © WBEI positioned in the lower field. |
