| Obverse description | Left-facing crowned effigy of King George VI, modelled by Percy Metcalfe, whose initials PM appear small below the truncation of the neck. The King wears the Imperial State Crown rendered in fine relief detail. The surrounding legend reads GEORGE VI KING EMPEROR, disposed along the inner border, with a toothed milling border encircling the entire design. The portrait is rendered in a restrained, naturalistic style characteristic of British colonial coinage of the era. |
