10 Algerian Dinars coin (Decagonal)

10 Algerian Dinars (Issued 2009)

The ten-dinar coin is one of Algeria’s higher circulating denominations, this piece dated 2009. Struck in a pale nickel-coloured alloy, it is a substantial coin, thicker and heavier than the minor values, and made to endure constant everyday handling.

On the obverse, the value side is dominated by a large numeral 10 within a raised inner circle, surrounded by the Arabic legend for the Bank of Algeria above and the denomination below, with a small star set to either side within the rim.

On the reverse appears the head of a Barbary falcon, a bird of prey of the North African mountains and deserts, rendered in careful relief and facing to the side. The Gregorian year and its Islamic equivalent are inscribed in the upper field around the design.
