Reverse
The upper part of the reverse features the crown of the Russian Empire. Below, on two lines, are the denomination and monetary unit: 10 KOPĒEKЪ. Next is a separator element consisting of two elongated, oppositely directed figures with a dot between them. Slightly below the ornamental separator is the coin's year of issue '1849', beneath which is the abbreviation 'S.P.B.' (Saint Petersburg Mint). Along the left edge of the coin is a laurel branch, and along the right edge, an oak branch. At the base, the branches are tied together with a ribbon, the knot of which forms a bow. The entire edge of the coin is stamped with protruding denticles.
Obverse
The center of the obverse is occupied by the double-headed eagle—the coat of arms of the Russian Empire. Both eagle heads bear crowns, and a third, larger crown is positioned between them. All three crowns are connected by a ribbon. On the eagle's chest is the coat of arms of Moscow—a shield depicting St. George the Victorious on horseback, slaying a serpent with a long spear (the serpent's head is to the right). Surrounding the shield is the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the First-Called. The coats of arms on the wings: Left wing: Polish, Taurida, Finnish. Right wing: Kazan, Astrakhan, Siberian. In the right talon is a scepter, and below it the letter 'P'. In the left talon is an orb, and below it the letter 'A'. Together, the letters form the initials of Mintmaster Pavel Alekseev. The rim is decorated with denticles pointing towards the center.
