| 表面の説明 | Bare-headed effigy of King Edward VIII facing left, rendered in high relief with naturalistic modelling of facial features. The portrait, the work of engraver Thomas Humphrey Paget, occupies the centre of the dodecagonal field, with the engraver's initials 'HP' visible at the truncation. The surrounding legend reads EDWARDVS VIII D : G : BR : OMN : REX F : D : IND : IMP, disposed along the inner edge of the coin. Notably, the effigy faces left, breaking with the tradition of alternating portrait direction, as Edward VIII himself preferred this orientation. |

Edward VIII abdicated in December 1936, before any coins bearing his effigy entered circulation. The Royal Mint had already prepared patterns for the full coinage, and this twelve-sided threepence — developed as part of that aborted program — survives in very small numbers as a direct artifact of the constitutional crisis. George VI ultimately inherited not just the throne but an entire mint program, adopting the new nickel-brass alloy and shape that Edward's pattern had already proven viable.
