| Reverse description | A full-colour photographic depiction of the White Cliffs of Dover occupies the majority of the reverse field, showing the dramatic chalk cliff face descending to a blue-green sea, with green vegetation and buildings visible atop the cliffs. The denomination TEN PENCE is inscribed in raised letters across the upper portion of the field above the coloured image. The inscription WHITE CLIFFS OF DOVER curves along the lower right periphery, integrated within the coloured design. Subtle topographic contour lines are visible in the upper field area behind the colour print. |

| Additional information |
The Isle of Man has no geographic or historical connection to the White Cliffs of Dover — those chalk formations are emphatically English, sitting on the Kent coastline nearly 300 miles away. The island's 10 pence series has long used rotating reverse designs that celebrate broader British cultural and natural landmarks rather than strictly Manx subjects, a curatorial choice that occasionally produces combinations as geographically incongruous as this one.
