Lapel varieties (Elie 2003, p. 443):
El Mon.# 10.2a: without triangle under the 10, with rhombus on the right.
El Mon.# 10.2b: with triangle below the 10, without rhombus on the right.

The latter variety (El Mon.# 10.2b) also appears to have the rhombus on the right, but only very slightly(https://wikicollection.fr/?p=24830). Only the presence/absence of the triangle under the 10 distinguishes the two varieties.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Variétés de revers (Elie 2003, p. 443) :
El Mon.# 10.2a : sans triangle sous le 10, avec losange à droite
El Mon.# 10.2b : avec triangle sous le 10, sans losange à droite.

Cette dernière variété (El Mon.# 10.2b) semble en fait avoir aussi le losange à droite, mais très peu marqué (https://wikicollection.fr/?p=24830). Seule reste la présence-absence du triangle sous le 10 pour distinguer les deux variétés.
