Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 65th anniversary of VE Day (Victory in Europe Day), which marked the end of World War II in Europe. The coin's design features an image of Queen Elizabeth II, along with the inscription "VE DAY 1945-2010" and the Jersey coat of arms. The coin's silver content and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists and history enthusiasts.
