| Obverse description | A finely detailed relief of a standing lion in profile facing left occupies the central field, rendered with naturalistic musculature and a full mane, shown resting on a grassy ground line. The upper periphery bears the curved legend REPUBLIQUE DEMOCRATIQUE DU CONGO in raised Latin lettering. The denomination 10 Francs appears in the lower field beneath the lion in elegant serif type. The mirror-polished proof field contrasts sharply with the frosted devices, giving the composition a striking cameo appearance. |

| Reverse description | The central field features a finely engraved three-quarter view of a 1932 Duesenberg SJ open-top roadster, depicted with exceptional mechanical detail including exposed exhaust pipes, wire-spoke wheels, prominent headlamps, and a folded convertible hood. The curved legend AUTOMOBILES HISTORIQUES arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering. Below the automobile, the inscription Duesenberg SJ 1932 is presented in two lines, with the issue year 2003 appearing at the base of the field. The frosted relief of the vehicle against the mirror-polished proof field creates a pronounced cameo effect. |
