| Obverse description | Uncrowned, bare-headed effigy of King Charles III facing left, rendered in high relief with fine sculptural detail after the portrait by Martin Jennings. The peripheral legend reads CHARLES III · D · G · REX · F · D · 10 POUNDS, with the date 2024 continuing along the lower arc. The engraver's initials MJ appear discreetly below the truncation of the bust. The frosted portrait contrasts sharply against the mirror-polished field, characteristic of Royal Mint proof coinage. |

| Reverse description | A boldly rendered Chinese dragon in high relief occupies the majority of the field, depicted rearing with its scaled serpentine body coiling dynamically, its clawed feet and whiskered, open-mouthed head conveying power and majesty in the traditional East Asian artistic style. Below the dragon, a finely detailed landscape of stylised trees, rocks, and foliage forms a tranquil lower register. The Chinese character 龍 (dragon) is prominently placed in the lower centre of the field. The legend YEAR OF THE DRAGON · 2024 arcs along the upper periphery, and the designer's initials W.W. appear to the lower right of the central design. |
