The 10 francs Berlioz banknote is an issue of the Banque de France dated 3 October 1974, belonging to series H.101. This banknote is part of a series dedicated to the French composer Hector Berlioz (1803-1869), one of the major figures of musical Romanticism in France, and notably the composer of the Symphonie fantastique.

The obverse of the banknote features a central portrait of Hector Berlioz, reproduced with great graphic precision, characteristic of the work of the Banque de France's engravers. The portrait is accompanied by the denomination of 10 francs, as well as security features and regulatory inscriptions typical of banknotes of this era. The reverse depicts elements related to the composer's works and musical world, with a carefully crafted graphic composition blending typographic ornaments and evocative imagery.

This type of banknote, in circulation during the 1970s, illustrates the particular care taken by the Banque de France in representing French cultural and artistic figures on its currency. Series H.101 allows for precise identification of this banknote within the full range of Berlioz-type issues, facilitating its classification in numismatic collections.

From a technical standpoint, this banknote features the intaglio printing and typography characteristics typical of French banknote production of this period. The date of 3 October 1974 corresponds to the official issue date printed on the note, an essential detail for collectors wishing to build complete series by year of issue. The condition of this banknote is a determining factor in its valuation within a collection.
