Obverse description A richly composed allegorical design fills the field, featuring a collage of Austrian cultural and historical imagery. At upper right, a bearded portrait bust of Emperor Franz Joseph I in military uniform with decorations is depicted alongside a figure of a young man in period dress, likely representing Mozart, with musical manuscript in the background. At lower centre, a classical sculptural group of embracing figures is rendered in high relief. To the left, a contemporary alpine skier in action is shown against a mountainous backdrop. The Austrian shield appears centrally, with the legend REPUBLIK ÖSTERREICH arched above, and the denomination 10 EURO and date 2016 inscribed in the lower left field.

Reverse description A charming, stylised design conceived in a child's drawing aesthetic occupies the entire field. A central circular vignette depicts an idealized Austrian landscape with alpine mountains, a lake with a sailing boat, pine trees, and a meadow, with the word Österreich inscribed below and a small heart motif at centre. Surrounding this central medallion, a border of approximately fourteen cheerful, stylised child figures join hands in a ring, evoking themes of international friendship and childhood. The overall composition is playful and naive in artistic style, contrasting with the more formal obverse design.
