| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing draped and crowned effigy of King Edward VII, rendered in high relief with fine portrait detail characteristic of de Saulles's engraving style. The king wears the Imperial State Crown and robes of state, with the truncation of the bust visible at the lower field. The encircling legend reads EDWARD VII KING AND EMPEROR, arranged along the coin's periphery in evenly spaced Latin capitals. The field is smooth and unadorned, allowing the portrait to dominate the design. The overall composition follows the standard Diademed Imperial portrait convention employed across British colonial issues of the Edwardian era. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Struck as part of a broader recoinage study undertaken by the Indian government in the early 1900s, this pattern explored an alternative design direction that was ultimately rejected in favor of the seated figure type that continued in circulation. The "bullock plowing" motif was considered a deliberate nod to the agrarian economy of the subcontinent — a political calculation as much as an aesthetic one. It never advanced beyond pattern stage.
