| Reverse description | Bicolour design in dark blue and orange-red, centred on a large circular guilloche medallion enclosing the numeral 10 over horizontal line underprint, with the legend 10 YUAN in Roman characters along the lower arc. The bank title 中國聯合準備銀行 arches across the top of the medallion in Chinese characters, surmounted by a small traditional cash-coin motif. Flanking the central medallion are two symmetrical vertical panels each bearing the denomination characters 拾圓 within ornate lace-work guilloche. The overall field is filled with an elaborate orange-red interlocking floral and geometric underprint, with floral rosette cornerpieces. A printer's imprint in small Chinese characters runs along the lower margin. |
