| Obverse description | Left-facing crowned effigy of King George VI, rendered in high relief with fine portrait detail by Percy Metcalfe. The king wears the Imperial State Crown, depicted with considerable heraldic detail including fleurs-de-lis and crosses pattée. The truncation of the bust is bare and unadorned. The circular legend reads GEORGIVS VI DEI GRA: REX ET IND: IMP., separated from the toothed border by a narrow inner rim. The engraver's initials PM appear discreetly at the lower truncation. |
