| Reverse description | The reverse features a central motif of a tall date palm tree rising from a decorative base flanked by two reclining lions facing outward, elements drawn from the arms of Zanzibar. To the left of the palm, an Arabic inscription denotes the denomination '10 Sant' in Arabic script. To the right, the Western numeral '10' and the Arabic word 'Sant' appear in matching denomination reference. The date '1908' is inscribed in Western numerals along the lower exergue. The composition is balanced and heraldic in character, combining Arabic and Latin numeral elements within a plain raised rim. |
