| Obverse description | Within a geometric octagonal frame composed of intersecting diagonal lines, the denomination numeral '10' appears prominently at center-right, flanked to the upper left by an olive branch and to the lower center by an oak branch with acorns, both rendered in high relief. The legend 'RÉPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE' arcs across the upper and lower portions of the central field, with 'EURO' inscribed to the left of the numeral. The date '2017' is positioned vertically along the right inner margin of the frame, and the mint engraver's mark appears in the lower right of the central device. |

| Reverse description | Joan of Arc is depicted in a dynamic equestrian pose, rendered in a stylized fashion-inspired interpretation conceived by designer Jean-Paul Gaultier; she is shown in profile facing left, mounted on a rearing horse, her right arm raised aloft and her left hand gripping a tall lance. Her costume features an elaborate corset-style armor with pronounced ribbed and striated detailing, evoking both medieval plate armor and haute couture. To the left in the field, the Gothic façade of the Cathedral of Sainte-Croix d'Orléans is rendered in fine engraved detail. The curved legend 'LA FRANCE par Jean Paul Gaultier' arcs along the right border of the field in a flowing script. |
