| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, depicting the second crowned portrait as modelled by Arnold Machin, with the Queen wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara. The bust is draped and the portrait is rendered in a formal, idealized style characteristic of mid-twentieth-century British coinage. A continuous Latin legend encircles the effigy in the field, reading ELIZABETH·II·DEI·GRATIA·REGINA·F:D:, affirming her title as Queen and Defender of the Faith. |
