Interesting fact
The 1981 Jersey ½ Penny coin featuring the second portrait of Queen Elizabeth II is notable for having a unique mintage error. A small number of coins were minted with a misprinted date, reading "1911" instead of "1981." This error has made these coins highly sought after by collectors, with some selling for significant premiums over their face value.
