| Reverse description | A bold frontal zebu head dominates the central field, its sweeping wide-set horns framing the denomination panel above. Within the arc of the horns, the numeral 10 and the legend FRANCS appear in relief, with the word ESSAI inscribed below, confirming the pattern status of this piece. Flanking the zebu head are two decorative sprays of indigenous vegetation — a rice or vanilla branch to the left and a coffee branch to the right — with two small mint privy marks (a cornucopia and an owl) visible below the zebu head. The curved legend ARIARY ROA runs along the lower periphery, stating the equivalent value in the Ariary denomination. |
