Obverse description Portrait vignette of Lord Ilay (Archibald Campbell, 1682–1761, first governor of the Royal Bank of Scotland) at right, with the neoclassical facade of Sir Laurence Dundas's mansion on St. Andrew Square, Edinburgh — the bank's head office — rendered as a central architectural vignette. The bank's coat of arms appears at the lower portion of the design, with the arrows logo positioned at the top, set against a fine guilloche underprint.

Reverse description The central vignette presents a finely engraved view of Glamis Castle, Angus, with its distinctive array of conical-topped towers and turrets rendered in intaglio in shades of brown against a pale guilloche underprint. The denomination numeral £10 appears in bold at lower left and lower right flanking the castle vignette, with the caption GLAMIS CASTLE inscribed beneath the central architectural view. Decorative scrollwork cartouches occupy the upper left and upper right corners, and a scale-pattern guilloche border runs along the lower edge.
