Obverse description Unadorned left-facing effigy of King Gustaf VI Adolf, rendered in high relief with strong sculptural modeling of the facial features and close-cropped hair. The portrait is set against a polished field with a raised border rim. The circular legend GUSTAF VI ADOLF SVERIGES KONUNG (Gustaf VI Adolf King of Sweden) runs along the upper and lower periphery in incuse lettering, interrupted by two small dot separators. The overall style is naturalistic and dignified, characteristic of mid-twentieth-century Scandinavian medallic art.
