Obverse description The obverse is printed in blue and carries a large allegorical vignette at right, showing a dynamic classical scene with multiple figures — a standing male figure and a horse in a vigorous composition evoking industry and strength. At upper left, the issuing authority and validity date are set in letterpress, with the denomination '10 kg' in a dark inset panel at upper right. The lower half bears the denomination legend in bold letterpress, a serial number at centre-left, and two signature lines with manuscript facsimiles below titles for the Director of the Caisse Centrale d'Émission and the Director of the Sidérurgie Répartiteur.

Reverse description The reverse is printed in green and olive tones and is entirely ornamental, with a dense guilloche underprint filling the field within a geometric border of interlaced chain motifs at the perimeter. A large central diamond-shaped cartouche in a contrasting ochre tone carries the monogram 'CCETR'. Below, a rectangular panel in letterpress contains the statutory anti-counterfeiting warning in French. The word 'ENDOS' appears in letterpress at the top centre above the border.
