Reverse description The denomination 10 and the Greek legend ΛΕΠΤΑ are inscribed in two lines at centre, with the four-digit date below, all enclosed within a wreath of olive branches tied at the base. The wreath branches sweep upward symmetrically from the base and are joined at the apex by a small bow or knot. The numerals and letters are boldly struck in a plain serif typeface. The overall composition is simple and unadorned, with the field left plain, consistent with standard utilitarian coinage of the period.
