The depictions are really generic. Remove the legend and I doubt many would be able to correctly identify the subject.

dialog_gvf Pillar of the Community Canada 1581 Posts	Posted 02/11/2011 7:19 pm > Woah, I thought none of his coins were released. (at least not in Canada!) Were they already released in the UK? None in Canada. Not even a pattern, as far I know, because they would have been waiting for the tooling from The Royal Mint. Some of what were planned as circulation, but became patterns, leaked in the UK, I believe. No circulation. There is a holy grail specimen set. Some colonies did release coins without a likeness, but with details EDWARD VIII REX ET IND:IMP. New Guinea used ERI (I believe that what it it is, meaning Edward Rex Imp, I presume).
