| Obverse description | Central denomination numeral flanked by ornate letterpress text, with a crowned lion passant guardant atop a royal crown vignette positioned to the right. The issuing authority legend arches across the upper portion of the note in bold serif capitals. The overall layout is set against a plain ground with minimal guilloche work. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a central ornate cartouche rendered in brown and green intaglio, enclosing the denomination value '10/-' in large numerals set against a scrollwork and acanthus-leaf surround. A fine guilloche border frames the entire face, and an unprinted rectangular panel occupies the right-hand portion, likely intended as a control or overprint area. The overall design employs a restrained two-colour scheme with intricate floral corner ornaments. |
