In the central part, a double-headed eagle is depicted on a pedestal. The eagle with outstretched wings, its heads in a halo, a crown above them; in its right talon a sword, in its left a scepter; on its breast a crowned heraldic shield depicting the coats of arms of Lorraine and Tuscany, framed by a chain. On the facade of the pedestal the number 10, to its left a laurel branch and the Latin letter 'G', to its right a palm branch and the Latin letter 'R'. Along the arc of the left and right edge of the coin, an inscription in Latin: 'IN TE DOMINE SPERAVI∙1764∙' (In you, Lord, I have hoped 1764). At the end of the legend, a mark in the shape of the Latin letter 'X∙'. Around the edge of the coin are decorative raised denticles.
