| Obverse description | Laureate and cuirassed bust of George II facing left, the laurel wreath composed of four pairs of two leaves with a tie-riband displaying two short loose ends extending behind the head. The legend GEORGE RULES · curves along the upper periphery in Latin characters within a toothed border. The portrait closely imitates the standard regal halfpenny obverse type, a characteristic device employed by evasion token issuers to simulate official coinage while avoiding the legal penalties of outright counterfeiting. |
