Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates the 150th anniversary of the schooner "Resolute" which was built in 1850 in Jersey and became famous for its role in the Arctic Expedition led by Sir Edward Belcher in 1852. The coin's design shows the schooner in full sail, with the words "Resolute" and "Jersey" inscribed above and below the image, respectively. This coin was minted from 1998 to 2006 and is made of nickel brass, weighing 9.5 grams. It is a circulating commemorative coin, meaning it was intended to be used as regular currency in Jersey, but its unique design and limited mintage have made it a sought-after collector's item.
