| Obverse description | The Sarnath Lion Capital of Ashoka, the national emblem of India, is depicted centrally in the field, showing three lions upon an abacus adorned with a Dharma Chakra (wheel) flanked by a horse and bull in relief. The Devanagari legend 'भारत' appears along the left periphery and 'INDIA' along the right, both following the scalloped contour of the coin. Below the emblem, the denomination '10' is rendered in large numerals at center, flanked by the Devanagari 'पैसे' to the left and 'PAISE' in Latin script to the right. The motto 'सत्यमेव जयते' (Truth Alone Triumphs) is inscribed on the abacus of the Lion Capital as is customary on Indian coinage. The flat, unadorned field gives the design a clean, utilitarian character appropriate to a circulation issue. |
