| Obverse description | Bare-headed left-facing effigy of King George VI occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with fine detail in the hair and facial features. The portrait is surrounded by an inner beaded border following the dodecagonal flan. The circular legend reads GEORGIVS VI D:G:REX ET IND:IMP: around the periphery, with the engraver's initials H.E. (Humphrey Paget) appearing discreetly below the truncation of the bust. |
