| Obverse description | Left-facing crowned effigy of King George VI occupies the central field, depicted in a draped bust portrait engraved by Percy Metcalfe. The king wears the Imperial State Crown, rendered in fine detail with arches, fleurs-de-lis, and a prominent cross pattée at the apex. The legend GEORGE VI is inscribed vertically along the left border, while KING EMPEROR runs vertically along the right border, both orientated to follow the square flan. The portrait is unenclosed, set against a plain flat field within the square-with-rounded-corners format characteristic of Malayan coinage of this period. |
