| Obverse description | The Greek royal arms appear at upper left, flanked at upper centre by the bank's circular seal surrounded by crossed flags — including the British Union Jack and the Greek cross banner — within an ornate vignette. A large guilloche oval at right carries the numeral "10" with the legend ΔΡΑΧΜΑΙ ΝΕΑΙ, while the serial number is printed twice at upper left and right. The note body contains a handwritten date and place of issue, two manuscript signatures at lower right, and a large red overprint of the word ΔΕΚΑ across the centre. |
