| Obverse description | Bare-headed effigy of King Edward VIII facing right, modelled in high relief after Percy Metcalfe's original 1936 portrait design, with the engraver's initials 'P.M.' incuse below the truncation. The king is depicted with short, neatly combed hair and a clean-shaven face, rendered in a restrained, modernist style characteristic of the inter-war period. The circular Latin legend reads EDWARDVS VIII D: G: BR: OMN: REX F: D: MCMXXXVI, separated by raised dots, running along the inner border of the coin. The field is deeply mirrored with a polished proof-like finish, accentuating the fine detail of the portrait. A continuous beaded border frames the design at the rim. |
