| Obverse description | Left-facing crowned effigy of King George VI, wearing the Imperial State Crown, with a bare neck and truncated bust. The portrait is executed in high relief in the style engraved by Percy Metcalfe, with the engraver's initials 'PM' visible at the base of the truncation. The circular legend reads 'GEORGE VI KING AND EMPEROR OF INDIA' around the periphery, flanked by a beaded border. The field is flat and unadorned, focusing attention on the refined royal portrait. |
