| Obverse description | Uncrowned left-facing effigy of King Charles III after the portrait by Glyn Davies, depicted with naturalistic detail in high relief against a polished field. The peripheral legend reads CHARLES III · BAILIWICK OF GUERNSEY, with bullet separators flanking the date 2025 positioned in the lower exergue. The portrait is rendered in a contemporary sculptural style consistent with official Bailiwick coinage of the reign. |

| Reverse description | A highly detailed, naturalistic depiction of a crane fly (Tipula species) occupies the central field, shown from above with wings outstretched, its elongated legs extending toward the coin's edges, engraved by Mike Langman. The denomination TEN PENCE arcs along the upper periphery, while the species name CRANE FLY curves along the lower periphery. The finely rendered entomological illustration contrasts against a dark, recessed field, emphasizing the insect's delicate wing venation and segmented body. |
