| Obverse description | The third portrait effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, as sculpted by Dora de Pédery-Hunt, facing right. The Queen is depicted wearing the George IV State Diadem, a pearl necklace, and drop earrings. The legend ELIZABETH II D·G·REGINA arcs along the upper periphery, with the denomination area left for the reverse. The bust is rendered in a refined, naturalistic style characteristic of de Pédery-Hunt's medallic work, with fine detail in the diadem's jewelled band and fabric of the dress. |
