| Obverse description | Crowned effigy of King George VI facing left, wearing the Imperial State Crown, as modeled by Percy Metcalfe. The king's portrait is rendered in high relief against a smooth field, with fine detail visible in the crown's jewels and the king's facial features. The circular legend surrounding the effigy reads GEORGE VI KING AND EMPEROR OF INDIA., separated by a raised dot. The entire design is contained within the distinctive eight-scalloped border, with a fine beaded inner border framing the legend. |
