| Obverse description | Left-facing crowned and robed bust of King George V, modelled by Sir Edgar Bertram Mackennal, occupies the centre of the field. The king is depicted wearing the Imperial State Crown and robes of state with military decorations visible at the chest. The circumferential legend GEORGIVS V REX IMPERATOR runs along the upper periphery, flanked by the engraver's initials B.M. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine detail in the crown jewels and facial features. The entire design is bordered by a continuous beaded rim. |
