Identification note: Exact KM subtype not verified from photos; precise grade and value require in-hand inspection. | Type confirmed by: United Kingdom bronze penny, George VI obverse with legend GEORGIVS VI ... IND:IMP, Britannia reverse, 30.8 mm/9.45 g bronze, and clear 1937 date. These attributes match the George VI penny type issued 1937–48 (KM-845). What remains unverified: proof vs circulation finish and any minor die varieties, which do not change the KM type number.
