Interesting fact
The 5 Pound coin commemorating the 65th Coronation Anniversary of Elizabeth II from Guernsey features a unique reverse design that showcases a portrait of the Queen, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves and the inscription "65th Coronation Anniversary." This design was created by artist and sculptor, Ian Rank-Broadley, who is known for his work on various coins and medals, including the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II that appears on many Commonwealth coins.
