| Obverse description | Bare-headed effigy of King Edward VIII facing left, with finely detailed hair, executed in high relief in the style of D.R. Gould, whose initials 'DRG' appear at the base of the neck truncation. The circumferential legend reads EDWARDVS VIII D: G: BR: OMN: REX, separated by dot stops, in bold raised Latin lettering. The field is deeply polished and mirror-like, consistent with proof striking. The effigy is uncrowned, reflecting the unconventional left-facing portrait proposed for Edward VIII's coinage. |
