| Obverse description | The Lion Capital of Ashoka, the national emblem of India, is depicted centrally at the top of the field, showing three lions passant upon an abacus adorned with a Dharma Chakra wheel flanked by a bull and a horse in relief. The numeral '10' appears prominently in the lower central field, with the legend 'PAISE' to the right in Latin script and '10 पैसे' in Devanagari script to the left. The country name 'INDIA' arcs along the right periphery in Latin script, with 'भारत' inscribed along the left periphery in Devanagari script. The mint mark, where present, appears below the Lion Capital. The entire design is contained within the distinctive twelve-notched scalloped flan. |
