It was the only picture provided, but it has the prospects for being a jewel in the rough.

    I don't know but from the pic, it looks to me more like King George V rather than Edward VII. image

    I noticed the label too but from the beard and mustache, it looks like George V. I am sure it is Edward VII but it is uncanny how the son looks like his dad from this effigy.

    The thing that really facinates me about this set is the fact that all but one has Edward facing left. I have not found the medals in BHM yet, but most that I have seen are facing right. Has something to do with whether they are crowned yet, I believe.

    Of a certainty that is Edward VII - he is often shown on colonial issues with the beard and crown.
