Obverse description Printed in dark blue on a dense guilloche underprint, the obverse centres on an intaglio vignette of the 'Zeeuws meisje' — a traditionally dressed Zeelandic farm woman — placed at the lower centre of the design. The denomination numeral '10' appears at the corners, with the bank's full name and obligation text arranged across the face in letterpress. The overall composition reflects the refined engraving style characteristic of Enschedé productions of the early twentieth century.
