| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of King George III facing right, rendered in high relief with fine classical detail engraved by Lewis Pingo. The king's hair is styled in tight curls beneath the laurel wreath, and a neckcloth with flowing bow is visible at the truncation. The peripheral Latin legend reads GEORGIVS III DEI GRATIA, meaning 'George III by the Grace of God', disposed around the upper and lower field. The rim is defined by a fine raised border with delicate milling. |
