| Obverse description | Crowned and draped bust of King George V facing left, modelled by Sir Edgar Bertram MacKennal, occupying the central field. The king is depicted wearing the Imperial State Crown and robes of state with elaborate collar detail. The circular legend reads GEORGIVS V REX IMPERATOR, divided on either side of the effigy, with the engraver's initials B.M. appearing below the truncation. The design is executed in high relief with fine portrait detail characteristic of MacKennal's work for British colonial coinage. |
