| Reverse description | The coat of arms of the Kingdom of Burundi dominates the central field, featuring a shield bearing a lion's head, flanked by crossed spears and a traditional drum at the crest, with a scroll below bearing the royal motto GANZA SABWA. The mintmaster's mark ARGOR appears below the shield. The circumferential legend ROYAUME DU BURUNDI INDEPENDANCE 1962 arcs around the upper portion, while the denomination 10 FRANCS appears at the base, all separated by small five-pointed stars. A beaded border frames the entire design. |
