| Obverse description | Central round hole surrounded by a raised ring, flanked on either side by a crowned royal sceptre, the shafts of which are entwined with foliate scrollwork and joined at the base by a pair of spread wings. A large St. Edward's Crown is positioned above the hole at the top of the field. The denomination fraction '1/2' appears below the hole. The circumferential legend reads 'GEORGIUS V DG REX ET IND IMP' and is separated by dot stops, all within a fine beaded border. |
