| Reverse description | A bottlenose dolphin rendered in high relief occupies the central field, depicted in a dynamic leaping pose with its body arched and rostrum raised to the upper right, air bubbles rising around it. The lower portion of the field features a finely detailed coral reef scene including branching coral, a seahorse, and other marine life, evoking the Caribbean marine environment of the British Virgin Islands. The Pobjoy Mint privy mark (PM) appears within the reef scene at lower centre-right. The denomination $10 is inscribed in large characters at the base of the design, flanked by the inscriptions ONE OUNCE to the left and FINE SILVER to the right. |
