| Obverse description | Central round perforation surrounded by a crown above, with the denomination legend encircling the hole in both English and Arabic scripts. The royal legend EDWARDVS VIII REX ET IND:IMP: arcs around the upper periphery, while the Arabic denomination وَاحِد پَنّي appears in the lower field.
