| Obverse lettering | GEORGE V KING EMPEROR |
| Reverse description | The reverse displays the denomination '1/2 ANNA' prominently in the center of the square field with rounded corners, with 'INDIA' inscribed above and the date '1938' below. The layout is bold and typographic in the tradition of British Indian subsidiary coinage reverse dies. As a mule pattern, this reverse die is paired with the George V obverse die, creating an anachronistic combination. The plain field surrounding the denomination inscription gives the design a clean, utilitarian appearance consistent with British Indian pattern coinage. |
