| Obverse description | The obverse features a centrally placed round hole flanked by a decorative bracket motif, above which sits a St. Edward's Crown in high relief at the top of the field. The denomination ONE HALFPENNY curves around the hole in bold raised letters, reading from left to right. The peripheral legend QUEEN ELIZABETH THE SECOND runs clockwise around the upper rim in Latin script. Below the central hole, the Arabic-script legend نصف پنی (meaning 'half penny') appears in the lower field. The coin's milled edge border frames the entire design. |
