| Obverse description | Central crowned royal cypher 'GR' (Georgius Rex) in cursive script, enclosed within a laurel wreath. The date 1796 appears at the top of the field, divided by the crown surmounting the cypher. The overall design is rendered in a clean, engraved style typical of late 18th-century British colonial coinage. |
