| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing a tiara and pearl necklace, after the portrait model by Arnold Machin. The legend QUEEN ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper left rim and MAURITIUS along the upper right rim, both in raised Latin lettering. The denomination 10 RUPEES appears in the lower field beneath the bust, flanked by raised dots. The portrait is rendered in a clean, neoclassical style with fine hair and facial detail characteristic of the Machin effigy used throughout the Commonwealth. |
