| Obverse description | Uncrowned effigy of King George VI facing left, modeled by Thomas Humphrey Paget, whose initials 'HP' appear below the truncation of the neck. The portrait depicts the king in a plain, unadorned style characteristic of his Canadian coinage issues. The circumferential legend reads 'GEORGIVS VI DEI GRATIA REX' and is separated from the inner field by a dentilated border running the full circumference of the coin. |
