| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-necked, crowned effigy of King George VI facing left, modeled by Percy Metcalfe, with the engraver's initials 'PM' visible in the field below the truncation. The portrait is unadorned save for the St. Edward's Crown atop the king's head. The circumferential Latin legend reads 'KING GEORGE THE SIXTH' and is separated from the reeded edge by a continuous beaded border encircling the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
George VI died on 6 February 1952, making this one of the final issues struck in his name for British Honduras before the transition to Elizabeth II coinage. The colony had switched this denomination to copper-nickel from silver in 1942, a wartime measure driven by silver's strategic value — a change that proved permanent.
