Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1923-1926 George V 1/12 Shilling coin from Jersey is that it features a unique design on the reverse side, which shows a representation of the island's coat of arms, featuring three leopards (or lions passant) and a shield with the motto "Never say die." This design was specifically created for the Jersey coinage and sets it apart from other coins issued by the British Crown dependencies during the same period.
