| Obverse description | Uncrowned left-facing effigy of King Charles III, modelled by engraver Glyn Davies, occupies the central field. The circumferential legend reads CHARLES III · BAILIWICK OF GUERNSEY, with the date 2024 displayed in the lower exergue flanked by two small dots. The portrait renders the King's bare head with naturalistic detail, consistent with the official coinage effigy introduced for Guernsey following his accession. |

| Reverse description | A finely detailed naturalistically rendered seahorse occupies the central field in a diagonal orientation, its curled tail extending to the lower right and its elaborately spined dorsal crest prominent at upper left, engraved by Mike Langman. The legend TEN PENCE arcs along the upper periphery, while the word SEAHORSE curves along the lower periphery, both inscriptions set within a raised border. The field is plain, allowing the intricate sculptural relief of the marine subject to dominate the design. |
