| Obverse description | Bare-headed left-facing effigy of King George VI, engraved by Thomas Humphrey Paget, occupying the central field. The king is depicted with fine portrait detail, wearing no crown or diadem, in the restrained classical style adopted for Commonwealth coinage from 1937. A continuous Latin legend encircles the effigy, reading GEORGIVS VI D:G:BR:OMN:REX F:D:IND:IMP, separated from the rim by a fine beaded border. The engraver's initials HP appear truncated at the base of the portrait. |
