OBVERSE 

On the obverse of this coin, essential elements of the Île-de-France identity are recognizable. The design is structured around the quintessential representation of the region, Paris, and even France: the Eiffel Tower. Drawn from a low angle, the tower bears the region's name inscribed in place of its first level. It also rests on an Art Nouveau metro entrance, nestled beneath its arches.

To its right, the bust of a majestic stag reminds us that Île-de-France is also a region of parks, woods, and forests. Three fleurs-de-lis, arranged around the stag, refer to the territory's coat of arms. 

On the reverse, Louis XIV is depicted in profile, his name inscribed within his headdress. Below his portrait, a decorative element from the gate of the Palace of Versailles takes the form of an allegory of the Sun King, doubling the reference to France's most famous king and the invaluable architectural heritage he left to Île-de-France with the Palace of Versailles.

REVERSE

The reverse displays the face value of "Euro 10" surrounded by two branches, one of oak, the other of laurel, evoking the Euro symbol. The entire reverse design is framed by "République Française" and an arrangement of lines representing the Hexagon.
