| Obverse description | Bare-headed laureate effigy of King George III facing right, engraved by Benedetto Pistrucci in a refined neoclassical style. The king's portrait features tightly curled hair bound with a laurel wreath tied at the nape, with ribbon ends visible below. The truncation of the neck is clean and unadorned. The field is plain and devoid of any legend or inscription, giving the portrait a bold, sculptural presence characteristic of Pistrucci's early sovereign pattern work. |
