The stylized federal eagle with the twelve stars of the European Union at its side, the words "Silber 625", silver 625‰, to avoid any confusion with the coin minted in cupronickel, and the name of the state "BUNDESREPUBLIK DEUTSCHLAND", the Federal Republic of Germany. Beneath the eagle is the year "2012", the face value "10 EURO" and the Munich workshop mark with the letter "D".Automatically translated
