Obverse description The German Federal Eagle rendered in high relief occupies the central field, its wings spread in the heraldic style traditional to German coinage. A semicircular arc of twelve stars, representing the European Union, frames the eagle above. The denomination '10 EURO' is inscribed in two lines below the eagle, with the mint mark 'D' positioned beneath. The circular legend 'BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND · 2010' runs along the lower periphery of the coin in raised Latin lettering.

Reverse description The reverse presents a juxtaposition of railway eras: a meticulously detailed early 19th-century steam locomotive, evocative of the 'Adler' — Germany's first railway engine — is depicted in the central field in fine relief, set against the arching glass-and-steel canopy of a modern railway terminus rendered in the background. The numeral '175' appears to the left of the locomotive, referencing the anniversary. The legend 'JAHRE EISENBAHN' curves along the upper periphery, while 'IN DEUTSCHLAND' is inscribed along the lower arc, completing the commemorative inscription.
