| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays the Haitian coat of arms at center, depicting a palm tree surmounted by a Phrygian cap, flanked symmetrically by six furled flags and a trophy of arms comprising two cannons, cannonballs, an anchor, and a drum in the lower field, all rendered in fine relief. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The curved legend REPUBLIQUE D'HAITI arcs across the upper periphery, while DIX CENTIMES appears along the lower periphery, separated on each side by a small five-pointed star. The entire composition is bordered by an outer beaded rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Haiti's 1863 bronze coinage was struck in Paris under contract, part of a broader effort by President Fabre Geffrard to stabilize a currency system chronically undermined by gourde devaluations and widespread counterfeit copper. Geffrard had seized power in 1859 after overthrowing the emperor Faustin Soulouque, and rehabilitating the coinage was an early political priority — the republic needed to look like a republic.
KM#40 pieces are frequently found heavily corroded, a predictable outcome for bronze in a tropical maritime environment. Decent survivors with intact surfaces are harder to locate than mintage figures alone would suggest.
