The obverse features the bare head of

King George V facing left, with the legend:

'GEORGIVS V DEI GRA: BRITT: OMN: REX'

Notes: Slightly smaller reverse design, with thicker rim

edge. Difficult to identify without comparing magnified

images side by side with standard reverse.

Measuring from top of 'F' in 'FID' to bottom of 'N' in

'CROWN' differences become more obvious.

Key indicators: more upright '9's in date.
