| Reverse description | The large numeral '10' dominates the upper central field in bold relief, flanked on each side by a stylized laurel-and-oak branch curving upward from a small floral ornament at the base. Below the numeral, the denomination 'КОПЕЕК' is inscribed in a straight Cyrillic legend across the middle of the field, with the date '1956' positioned in the lower exergual area beneath the branches. The overall design is clean and typographic, consistent with Soviet coinage of the mid-twentieth century. |
