| Obverse description | Central round hole surrounded by two crossed ceremonial sceptres or clubs, surmounted by a royal crown at top. The effigy of King George V is not depicted in portrait form; instead, the royal crown and crossed regalia serve as the primary design elements in the field. The circular legend reads GEORGIUS V D G REX ET IND IMP, separated by small star stops, with the numeral 1 appearing below the central hole in the exergue area. The entire design is encircled by a milled border, rendered in a bold, crisp relief consistent with a trial or pattern strike. |
