| Obverse lettering | GEORGIVS VI REX IMPERATOR PM |
| Reverse description | The denomination numeral '1' is displayed prominently in the centre of the field, surrounded by the circular legend reading '·CYPRVS·' across the top and 'ONE PIASTRE·1938' along the lower arc, all set within the distinctive twelve-lobed scalloped border. The design is plain and typographic in character, with no additional pictorial elements, relying entirely on bold lettering to convey the issuing territory, denomination, and date. The layout follows the style established for British colonial coinage of the period. |
