Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, showcasing a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, which was specifically created for this issue by sculptor and engraver, Raphael Maklouf. This design was used on several other coins issued by Jersey during the 1980s, but the 1983 issue is particularly sought after by collectors due to its relatively low mintage of 1,000,000 coins.
