| Obverse description | Right-facing crowned effigy of King George V in military uniform, engraved by Edgar Bertram MacKennal, occupying the central field. The King wears the Imperial State Crown and is depicted with a short beard, the truncation of the bust showing decorative military dress. The encircling legend reads GEORGIVS V REX IMPERATOR, with the engraver's initials BM appearing at the base of the bust truncation. The coin's milled border frames the design closely, giving the portrait a bold, authoritative presence. |
