This 1949 One Shilling coin from the United Kingdom features King George VI, who reigned from 1936 to 1952. The reverse design depicts a crowned lion seated atop a crown, holding a sword and sceptre, symbolizing strength and sovereignty. The date is elegantly divided on either side of the crown.

Struck in Copper-Nickel (CuNi), this coin represents the early post-war British currency period and is an excellent collectible for those interested in Royal Mint history and 20th-century numismatics.
