| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features the colonial arms of Angola: the Portuguese shield quartered with the quintas (five roundels bearing bezants) superimposed upon an armillary sphere, the whole surmounted by a crest of five crowns. The legend ANGOLA arcs along the upper periphery in large capital letters, flanked on either side by small floral ornaments. The denomination 10$00 appears prominently in the lower field, with the escudo sign incorporated between the numerals. A beaded border runs along the rim. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central device consists of the Portuguese Republican arms — the national shield bearing the quintas and castles, set within an armillary sphere — rendered in finer relief than the obverse. Two crossed swords or stylised navigation instruments flank the sphere in the background field. The circular legend REPÚBLICA·PORTUGUESA runs along the upper and lateral periphery, with the mint year 1970 displayed in the lower exergual area, flanked by small star ornaments. A beaded border frames the entire design. |

Angola's 10 Escudos of 1969–70 was struck while Portugal's colonial administration was fighting a sustained insurgency across three African territories simultaneously — Angola, Mozambique, and Guinea-Bissau. The financial strain of that multi-front war forced Lisbon to rationalize colonial coinage, and copper-nickel replaced silver in Angolan denominations during precisely this period as part of that cost-cutting shift.
The series ran only two years before Angolan coinage was overhauled again, making the window for this type unusually short.
