| Obverse description | Portrait of Life President Dr. Hastings Kamuzu Banda in an intaglio-printed oval vignette at right, set against an intricate guilloche border. The central vignette renders a lakeside sunset scene with fishermen working nets from a boat, framed by palm fronds, rendered in fine intaglio line work with warm orange and blue underprint tones. Denomination numerals K10 appear in each corner, with the issue date and Governor's signature printed at the lower centre. |
