Obverse description Within a circular border, the national arms of Paraguay (Sello de Hacienda) are displayed centrally, featuring the treasury seal with a lion and staff of liberty beneath a Phrygian cap. The surrounding legend reads REPUBLICA DEL PARAGUAY along the upper arc and PAZ Y JUSTICIA along the lower arc, with the denomination 10 Rs inscribed in the exergue below the arms. The design is executed in a formal neoclassical engraving style typical of mid-19th century South American coinage.

Reverse description A seated female figure representing Liberty occupies the central field, holding an olive branch in one hand as a symbol of peace and a sword and scales in the other as emblems of justice, rendered in a classical allegorical style. The date of issue, 1864, appears in the lower exergue beneath the figure. The composition is uncluttered, with the allegorical figure dominating the field against a plain background, consistent with the restrained aesthetic of mid-19th century South American pattern coinage.
