Interesting fact

The Herring Gull design on the 10 Pence coin from Guernsey is a unique feature, as it is the first time a colourised image of a bird has been used on a coin in the British Isles. The use of colourised imagery on coins is a relatively new practice, and it adds an extra layer of depth and detail to the design, making the coin stand out.
