George VI faces left on every coin he appeared on, and in all countries where his image was used on coins.

It is traditional that each successive British Monarch faces in the opposite direction from the preceding Monarch.

King George I faces right

King George II faces left

King George III faces right

King George IV faces left

King William IV faces right

Queen Victoria faces left

King Edward VII faces right

King George V faces left

King Edward VIII faces left - he broke the tradition on the very few coins he appeared on

King George VI faces left

Queen Elizabeth II faces right

Can you spend old British coins?

Most likely no. Most British predecimal coins are no longer legal tender. The predecimal Crown was never demonetised and is still legal tender. The decimal Halfpenny, the larger pre-1990 5 Pence, the larger pre-1991 10 Pence and the larger pre-1997 50 Pence have all been demonetised and are no longer legal tender. The Commemorative 25 Pence and Five Pound (Crown) coins are legal tender, but not intended to be circulated. All other British decimal coins should be all right to spend.
