| Obverse description | Fantasy note modelled on the first series Europa 10 euro design, printed in violet and red tones. The central vignette presents a Romanesque archway rendered in fine intaglio-style engraving, flanked by a guilloche underprint with scattered EU stars; the large numeral "10" appears in the upper right. A holographic-style stripe runs along the right margin bearing repeated "10" and euro-sign devices, while the EU flag vignette occupies the upper left corner and the denomination "10 EURO / EΥΡΩ" is printed in red at lower left. |
