| 表面の説明 | Left-facing crowned effigy of King George VI, engraved by Percy Metcalfe, occupies the central field. The king is depicted bare-necked and wearing the Imperial State Crown, rendered in fine detail with fleurs-de-lis and arched bands. The engraver's initials 'PM' appear discreetly below the truncation. The surrounding legend reads 'GEORGE VI KING EMPEROR' distributed evenly around the periphery in bold incuse lettering. The design is set against a broad, uncluttered field with a finely reeded border. |

The 1938 Mauritius rupee was struck at the Royal Mint during a period when Britain was quietly consolidating colonial currency systems ahead of what everyone in Whitehall knew was coming. Mauritius had used a fragmented mix of local and imported coinage throughout the nineteenth century; the rupee standard, adopted in 1876 to align with India, gave the island a workable monetary link to the broader British Indian Ocean trade network.
George VI's accession in 1936 following Edward VIII's abdication necessitated new dies across the entire colonial series. The 1938 date makes this among the earliest Mauritian rupees bearing his effigy.
