| Reverse description | Highly detailed antique-finish depiction of the interior ceiling of St. Paul's Cathedral, London, rendered as viewed from directly below looking upward.

A ribbon cartouche bearing the inscription ST. PAUL'S CATHEDRAL appears in the upper portion of the design, while a second cartouche with the denomination 10 DOLLARS is positioned at the lower field. |
