| Reverse description | At center, a Phoenician galley sailing to the right is depicted in fine detail, showing a horse-head prow, a large billowing sail, oars, and a helmsman at the stern, with stylized waves below the hull. The denomination '10 PIASTRES' arches across the upper field in bold Latin letters, flanked by a five-pointed star to each side. The legend 'REPUBLIQUE LIBANAISE' curves around the lower periphery, with the date 1955 appearing in the lower center field between two small ornamental devices. The entire design is framed by a beaded border. |
