| Obverse description | Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II occupies the left portion of the rectangular flan, rendered in relief against a polished field. The legend 'ELIZABETH II' appears to the upper right of the portrait, with 'AUCKLAND ISLANDS' inscribed in large bold letters to the right and below, and the date '2017' positioned in the lower right field. The design is framed by a plain raised border consistent with the rectangular format of the piece. |

| Reverse description | Two New Zealand sea lions (Phocarctos hookeri) are depicted in the central field of the rectangular flan: a large adult specimen rearing upright with open mouth to the right, and a smaller juvenile seal resting in the foreground to the left. The denomination '10 dollars' is inscribed in the upper left field, and the scientific name 'Phocarctos hookeri' appears as a legend along the lower portion of the design. The composition is naturalistic in style against a smooth, reflective background field. |
