Interesting fact

The 1 Double coin from Guernsey, which was minted between 1868 and 1911, features a unique design that sets it apart from other coins of its time. The obverse side of the coin bears an image of a Guernsey cow, which was a symbol of the island's agricultural industry. The reverse side features a wreath of laurel leaves surrounding the coin's denomination, which was a common design element used on coins during that era. The use of a Guernsey cow on the coin's obverse was a nod to the island's rich agricultural heritage and its reputation for producing high-quality dairy products.
