Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1957-1964 Jersey 1/12 Shilling coin is that it features a unique reverse design that depicts a representation of the island's coat of arms, which includes three leopards (also known as "lions passant") and a shield with the motto "Nosce te ipsum" (Latin for "Know thyself"). This design was specifically created for the Jersey coinage and sets it apart from other coins bearing the same portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
