Obverse description The crowned coat of arms of the Netherlands Antilles occupies the central field, featuring a shield bearing six five-pointed stars arranged in two rows, suspended from a royal crown above. A scrolled ribbon below the shield bears the motto LIBERTATE UNANIMUS. The denomination '10' appears to the left of the arms and the denomination initial 'G' to the right.

Reverse description A bold left-facing portrait bust of Cosimo de' Medici (Cosimo il Vecchio) dominates the upper portion of the field in high relief, rendered in a Renaissance portrait style after period iconography. In the lower foreground, two gold-plated renditions of the Florentine Fiorino d'oro are depicted side by side — one showing the obverse with the lily of Florence and the other the reverse with the standing figure of Saint John the Baptist. The arc legend COSIMO IL VECCHIO curves along the left rim, with the dates 1389-1464 arching along the upper right. A small engraver's monogram appears in the lower right field.
