10 Cents

正面描述	The obverse features the coat of arms of Guyana centrally positioned in the field. The shield displays a stylized depiction of the Victoria amazonica water lily above wavy lines representing rivers, with a canje pheasant (Opisthocomus hoazin) in the base. The shield is supported by two jaguars rampant, the dexter supporter holding a pickaxe and the sinister a stalk of sugar cane. Above the shield rises a helmet surmounted by an Amerindian headdress of feathers. Three scrolled banners below carry the national motto in Latin-script legend: ONE PEOPLE ONE NATION ONE DESTINY.

附加信息	Guyana's first independent coinage was authorized following the country's independence from Britain in 1966, with the Bank of Guyana issuing its inaugural series the following year. The 10-cent piece was part of that founding set, replacing the Eastern Caribbean Currency Authority issues that had previously circulated alongside British Guiana colonial coinage. The series ran largely unchanged for 25 years — an unusually long unmodified run, reflecting chronic budgetary constraints and limited domestic minting capacity. All pieces in this series were struck at the Royal Mint.
