| Reverse description | The reverse reproduces the standard first-series 10 Euro reverse design in uniform gold-plated tones, with a Roman aqueduct viaduct across the upper portion, its multiple arches rendered in fine intaglio-style detail. A stylised outline map of Europe occupies the central right field, with a scatter of EU stars at the lower left. The denomination "10" and bilingual inscription "EURO / ΕΥΡΩ" appear in the lower corners. |

This is not a banknote. Gold-plated polymer "euros" of this type are novelty items produced by private third-party manufacturers — not the European Central Bank, which has never issued gold-plated currency in any form. The ECB's genuine 2002 series notes were printed on cotton-fibre paper by national central bank printers across the eurozone. Robert Kalina designed the original series, but his credit has been routinely appropriated on commemorative and fantasy pieces to lend false legitimacy.
