| Reverse description | Right-facing laureate and draped bust of King George III, depicted with elaborately curled hair and a laurel wreath interwoven with foliage. The king's truncated bust is shown wearing a draped mantle. The encircling legend reads GEORGIUS III DEI GRATIA REX, distributed around the upper and lateral fields of the coin. The portrait is rendered in a neoclassical style consistent with early nineteenth-century British regal coinage. |
