| Reverse description | A crowned hornbill (Lophoceros alboterminatus), Zambia's national bird, is depicted perched and facing left, shown in naturalistic relief with careful attention to plumage and the distinctive large bill with casque. The bold numeral 10 appears to the left of the bird in the field, while the two-line legend TEN NGWEE is inscribed beneath in capitals, together conveying the denomination. The reverse design is rendered in a clean, documentary style characteristic of Royal Mint engraving practice of the period. |
