You're welcome! Yes, Numista is great, though I think it works best when you already have an idea of the country, or you can search on words in legends, etc (a bit tough in this case).
I've had a few coins with this king's image pass through my hands ... I've wondered if he is the first sovereign willing to have his portrait include eyeglasses.

I have a few of these from an inherited collection, and I wondered why they were all 1962. It turns out, these coins are an example of a "frozen date" coin. They were minted for 20 years, but all bore the (converted) date of 1962. The U.S. has some coins like this such as 1964 nickels.

That's an interesting thought. Hmmm...
