| Additional information |
The Seychelles coinage of this period was struck at the Royal Mint under the broader framework of British colonial currency standardization — the same administrative push that reshaped minor coinage across East African territories in the postwar years. George VI's health had deteriorated sharply by 1951; he would die in February 1952, making this among the final colonial issues to bear his effigy before the transition to Elizabeth II.
