| Obverse description | The obverse features the national coat of arms of Peru centrally positioned in the field, depicting a shield divided into three quarters bearing a vicuña, a cinchona tree, and a cornucopia, flanked by laurel and palm branches tied at the base. The circular legend BANCO CENTRAL DE RESERVA DEL PERU runs along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering. The date of issue appears in the lower portion of the field, below the coat of arms. The overall design is executed in a bold, slightly stylised relief consistent with Peruvian coinage of the period. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the large numeral '10' prominently in the upper centre of the field, with the word CENTIMOS inscribed in bold raised lettering below. Flanking the denomination on both sides are stylised pre-Columbian Andean decorative motifs rendered in low relief, evoking traditional Peruvian iconography. A row of Braille cells appears above the numeral '10', encoding the denomination for visually impaired users. A decorative horizontal band runs beneath the legend CENTIMOS, and the Lima Mint monogram appears at the bottom of the field. The coin's inner field is framed by a raised border, giving the reverse a structured, geometric appearance. |
