Reverse

Along the edge of the coin, the series name 'WARRIORS OF THE WORLD' is inscribed in English at the top, with 'MONGOLIAN' at the bottom. The central part of the reverse features a relief image of a Mongolian warrior on horseback in armor, holding a polearm with a bladed weapon in his right hand.

Obverse

Along the rim are inscriptions in French: at the top, the country name 'REPUBLIQUE DEMOCRATIQUE DU CONGO', and at the bottom, '10 Francs'. The central part depicts the coat of arms of the DRC: a leopard's head, with an elephant tusk to its left and a spear to its right. Below the head, on a motto ribbon, is the inscription 'Justice, Paix, Travail', which translates from French as 'Justice, Peace, Work'. The coat of arms separates the mint year '20 10'.
