Interesting fact

The 10 Pence coin from Guernsey features a unique design that sets it apart from other coins in the UK and its territories. The coin's reverse side features a depiction of a Guernsey cow, a breed that is native to the island and known for its rich milk and gentle nature. The design was created by sculptor and engraver, Michael Rizzello, and has been a distinctive feature of Guernsey's coinage since its introduction in 1977.
