Obverse description The denomination '10' appears prominently in the right portion of the field, flanked by the legend 'RÉPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE' arcing around the upper and lower periphery within an octagonal frame. A sprig of olive leaves is depicted above the denomination and a sprig of oak leaves below, both rendered in relief. Diagonal geometric lines radiate outward from the central hexagonal design to the coin's edge, creating a lattice pattern. The date '2016' is inscribed vertically along the right inner border of the design.

Reverse description The Little Prince is depicted in full figure flying a kite on a windswept northern beach, his scarf and garments animated by the breeze. In the background, sailing sand yachts (chars à voile) are visible along the shoreline, evoking a scene of travel and adventure. The composition is rendered in a fine illustrative style consistent with Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's original artwork. The legend curves along the upper field above the central scene.
