| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in rose-red and olive-green on a fine guilloche underprint, with a central vignette of the Provincial Bank of Ireland building in Belfast set within an ornate frame flanked by medallic panels bearing the word TEN. The bank title PROVINCIAL BANK OF IRELAND LIMITED runs across the top, with the legend UNLIMITED FOR NOTE ISSUE and ESTABLISHED A.D. 1825 below it. A large intaglio numeral 10 in stylised script occupies the lower centre, with the date, serial numbers, promise-to-pay text, and a manuscript signature completing the face. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed entirely in rose-red on a pale guilloche ground, dominated by a large oval vignette at centre containing an allegorical group of Britannia, armed with a trident, and Hibernia, holding a cornucopia, seated together with a lion at their feet. The oval is enclosed within elaborate lathe-work borders, with mirror-image £10 numerals to each side. The foundational inscription ESTABLISHED A.D. 1825 appears on a cartouche immediately below the central vignette. |
