| Translation | Translated from Latin: George the Sixth, King, and Emperor of India. |
The legend is displayed on colonial coinage and is shorter than the monarch's full legend - ie it does not proclaim him Defender of the Faith, or King of all the Britains but just King; separately, he is Emperor of India. | |
