The circular border legend 'POLSKA • RZECZPOSPOLITA • LUDOWA •' runs around the upper periphery in raised Latin characters.

Reverse description Central device depicts a stylised broad-canopied tree rendered in a bold, modernist graphic idiom, with large ovoid leaves fanning outward from a sturdy trunk whose roots terminate in a decorative foliate motif along the lower exergue. The denomination '10' appears in large numerals at the lower left within a rectangular cartouche, flanked on the right by the legend 'ZŁOTYCH' in raised capitals. The word 'PRÓBA' (trial) is inscribed vertically along the left inner field, identifying this piece as a pattern strike. The composition is contained within a plain raised border, reflecting the clean modernist aesthetic of the design.
