| Obverse description | Central field features a high-relief depiction of a large mineral nugget or volcanic rock formation, rendered with naturalistic texture evoking the geological character of Réunion Island. The curved upper legend reads 'ESSAI · PATTERN · PROBE' in raised Latin letters, denoting the trial or pattern status of the piece. The date '2009' appears in the lower exergue in bold raised numerals. The overall design aesthetic is bold and sculptural, with the rocky mass occupying the majority of the field. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a stylised frontal bust of a draped female figure, likely representing a local or allegorical personage, positioned to the left of centre in high relief against a field decorated with vertical line motifs reminiscent of euro cent coin design conventions. To the right of the figure, the large numeral '10' indicates the denomination. Below the bust, a row of short vertical bars separates the figure from the lower inscription. The currency name 'XEROS©' appears in a smaller legend above the larger bold inscription 'CEROS' at the base of the coin. |
