| Reverse description | Full-field colour photograph applied to the coin's surface depicting The Kelpies, the iconic pair of monumental steel horse-head sculptures located in Falkirk, Scotland, shown rearing dramatically against a warm ochre background featuring topographic contour line detailing. The denomination TEN PENCE arcs along the upper periphery, while the inscription THE KELPIES appears in bold lettering across the lower field. The colour printing technique gives the reverse a vivid, illustrative character distinct from the milled obverse. |
