Obverse description Effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, depicted with a diadem and wearing drop earrings, set within an open laurel wreath occupying the central field. A raised legend encircles the design along the broad outer border, reading EASTERN CARIBBEAN CENTRAL BANK at the top, TEN DOLLARS to the right, QUEEN ELIZABETH II at the bottom, and 1 OZ .9999 GOLD to the left. The portrait is rendered in high relief against a polished field, consistent with the proof finish characteristic of this bullion issue.

Reverse description A colourised Brown Pelican (Pelecanus occidentalis) depicted in full flight, wings broadly extended, traverses the central field from left to right, rendered in naturalistic polychrome colouring showing dark brown and chestnut plumage with a vivid red-tipped bill. Below the bird, a stylised coastal seascape features multiple sailing vessels on calm waters with a distant mountainous shoreline, all struck in uncoloured relief against the gold field. The legend ST. KITTS & NEVIS arcs across the upper border in italic script, with the date 2018 inscribed in the upper central field beneath it. Concentric incuse rings frame the inner design, creating a decorative border between the central motif and the reeded edge.
