| Obverse description | Bare-headed effigy of King Faisal I facing left, rendered in high relief with fine detail to the hair and short beard, engraver's initials 'PM' (Percy Metcalfe) visible below the truncation. The Arabic legend curves along the left and right periphery of the field, reading 'فيصل الأول ملك العراق' (Faisal I, King of Iraq). The portrait is executed in a naturalistic, classical style characteristic of Royal Mint production of the early 1930s. |
