| Obverse description | Draped bust of a king facing left, the effigy closely imitating the style of contemporary regal halfpenny coinage. The hair is rendered in loose, flowing locks tied at the nape. The legend GEORGE . RULES encircles the bust in the field, lettered in Roman capitals. The design is characteristic of evasion token manufacture, deliberately echoing official coinage whilst altering the legend to avoid counterfeiting statutes. |
