| Obverse description | Bimetallic piece with a brass central insert bearing the left-facing effigy of Queen Victoria, the legend VICTORIA REG: encircling the portrait within the insert. The surrounding copper outer ring carries the inscription ONE PENNY MODEL, the two elements separated by the bimetallic join. The portrait is rendered in the Young Head style characteristic of early Victorian coinage, with the Queen's hair drawn back and confined. The overall design emphasizes the experimental bimetallic format, with the inscriptions divided between the two distinct metallic zones. |
