| Reverse description | Central design depicting a stylised Lapita ceramic art motif, rendered as an oval composition of concentric bands filled with traditional geometric and dentate-stamped patterns. At the centre of the design is a schematic anthropomorphic face flanked by circular scroll elements and triangular geometric forms, all characteristic of ancient Lapita pottery decoration from the Pacific. The curved legend LAPITA ART arcs along the upper rim, with the denomination 10 DOLLARS inscribed below it in the upper field. |
