| Obverse description | The obverse features a stylized, contemporary design by Christian Lacroix depicting a cluster of historical French coins rendered in high relief against a hammered field, evoking the coinage of Henri IV's reign. The arrangement of overlapping coin motifs occupies the upper right portion of the field, with the largest coin displaying an armorial design at centre. To the left, the republican monogram 'RF' appears vertically, below which the regnal dates '1589' and '1610' are inscribed. The denomination '10 EURO' is boldly rendered in large characters across the lower portion of the field. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylized bust of King Henri IV in left-facing profile, rendered in a distinctive contemporary engraving style with finely incised parallel lines defining the flowing hair, pointed beard, and ruffled collar characteristic of late 16th-century royal portraiture. The effigy occupies the central field against a hammered background. The legend 'HENRI IV' is distributed around the upper periphery of the field, with individual letters spaced along the rim. The issue year '2013' is inscribed at the base of the design, flanked by decorative ornaments. |
