| Obverse description | The obverse features a dynamic comic-style composition depicting the three principal characters from the Asterix series: the diminutive Asterix in the lower left, the rotund Obelix at center pushing against the large numeral '1', and a third figure at right framing the '0' of the denomination. The bold denomination '10 EURO' dominates the field, with the characters integrated into and around the numerals in a lively, playful arrangement. The monogram 'RF' (République Française) appears to the right within the field. The design is rendered in high relief in a style faithful to the original Goscinny and Uderzo artwork, without applied color on this face. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a fully colored scene from the album 'Asterix and the Griffin', set in a wintry forest landscape rendered in fine relief. At center, Asterix rides atop a vibrantly colored griffin — depicted with a golden mane, blue bridle, and brown body — while Obelix stands to the left gesturing toward the stone neck of the mythical creature emerging from the snowy ground. Pine trees in the background are engraved in the silver field without color, creating a layered contrast with the polychrome foreground figures. The year '2022' appears at the top of the field, and the mint mark is visible nearby. The copyright legend '© 2022 Les Éditions Albert René' is inscribed along the left inner border. |
