King George IV's sovereigns have two different portraits - the Laureate Head and the Bare Head. After the issue of Benedetto Pistrucci's Laureate Head portrait, King George then insisted that a new, more flattering portrait was comissioned, resulting in the Bare Head portrait, designed by William Wyon.
