RogerBelmar reacted to Pete for a wiki, Obverse and Reverse
This terminology is used to reference the face of a coin and is often confusing so here is a simple description.
The obverse is the "head" so for a UK coin it would show a portrait of the Queen.
for non portrait coins it's the official side and usually non varying within a set. eg coat of arms side.
The "reverse" is the backside or tail of the coin.
