Obverse description Bare-headed left-facing effigy of King Charles III, engraved by Glyn Davies, occupies the central field. The portrait depicts the King in mature profile with naturalistically rendered hair and facial features. The circumferential legend reads CHARLES III • BAILIWICK OF GUERNSEY around the upper portion of the coin, with the designer's initials GD appearing below the portrait. The date 2024, flanked by raised dots, is positioned along the lower rim.

Reverse description A full-colour photographic-style depiction of a beaver (Castor fiber) in three-quarter profile facing right dominates the central field, rendered naturalistically with brown and grey tones; the animal is shown gnawing on a green plant stem, with its distinctive broad, flat tail extending to the left. The colourisation technique applied over the nickel-plated steel flan gives the design a vivid, lifelike appearance against a plain metallic ground. The denomination legend TEN PENCE arcs along the upper rim, while the species name BEAVER appears in bold raised lettering along the lower rim.
