| Obverse description | The left portion of the note carries the Somali national coat of arms within an elaborate guilloche medallion, set against a dark fine-line underprint with foliate motifs. At centre, an intaglio vignette presents the Fakr ad-Din mosque minaret in Mogadishu surrounded by vegetation and a stairway; above it, the large numeral '10' is printed over a rosette guilloche in red and orange. Two signature panels labelled 'GUDDOOMIYAHA' and 'LACAGHAYAHA' appear at the lower centre, with the date inscription 'MUQDISHO 1980' beneath. Decorative basket-weave panels border the right margin, with denomination numerals in each corner. |

| Reverse description | The central vignette illustrates traditional dhow-building on a beach, with craftsmen assembling the wooden hull of a vessel in the foreground and a red-hulled dhow moored in the background, rendered in fine intaglio engraving with multicolour tones. A large pink guilloche circle occupies the left centre as an anti-counterfeiting underprint device. The bank name appears at the top in both Arabic script and Roman lettering, while symmetrical geometric and floral decorative panels frame both vertical margins. |
