| Obverse description | The central field features a stylised Ionic column capital rendered in a modern geometric style, symbolising the classical Greek architectural heritage. Above the capital, the Greek coat of arms — a white cross on a blue shield within a laurel wreath — is depicted surrounded by a ring of twelve five-pointed stars representing the European Union. The legend ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ ΔΗΜΟΚΡΑΤΙΑ curves along the upper periphery in Greek script, while the denomination 10 ΕΥΡΩ appears in the lower field beneath the column. The design is framed by a decorative milled border of zigzag pattern running around the entire rim. |

| Reverse description | The central field features a large square cartouche bearing the official logo of the Greek Presidency of the Council of the European Union: a stylised abstract motif resembling a tilted column or amphora, accompanied by the inscription GR 2014 EU. A small fleur-de-lis ornament appears above the cartouche at twelve o'clock. The bilingual legend ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ ΠΡΟΕΔΡΙΑ ΤΟΥ ΣΥΜΒΟΥΛΙΟΥ ΤΗΣ ΕΕ curves along the upper periphery in Greek, while GREEK PRESIDENCY OF THE EU COUNCIL arcs along the lower periphery in Latin script. Twelve five-pointed stars, symbolising the European Union, are evenly distributed around the inner border, interspersed with the same zigzag milled frame as the obverse. |
