The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine detail to the crown's fleurs-de-lis, crosses, and jewelled band. The circular legend reads 'KING GEORGE THE SIXTH' around the upper periphery, with the inscription terminating near the lower truncation. The field is plain, and the coin is bordered by a continuous inner ring of beading.
