| Obverse description | Printed in red and black, the obverse carries Swedish text at the top and Finnish text in the lower centre, with a Czarist imperial eagle vignette at the left and a large bold numeral "10" at the right. Two manuscript signatures appear at the bottom centre, flanked by the series year in the lower margin. The overall layout is typical of mid-nineteenth-century letterpress banknote printing, with text-dominant design and minimal pictorial ornament. |
