Almost any counter with a 10 sec (hz) resolution time is fine. Doesn't even need to have provisions for an external clock , ( you can wire that in), as long as it has a 10mhz time base. You're going to drive it with an external 10mhz disciplined anyhow.

Studying eBay the other day, I came to the conclusion that an HP 5384A would be a good option, combining small size (compared to older rackmount counters), adequate resolution, an external reference input, and availability at fairly low prices. One thing to add to your checklist... Does it have a (noisy) fan? I suspect anything that is low cost won't have a lot of parts it in so won't ake much heat and won't need a fan. But you might find a good deal on a ancy/noisy unit. -- hese are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's.
