Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, created by artist Andrew Cunningham, which depicts a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves and the inscription "ELIZABETH II • QUEEN OF JERSEY". This design was specifically commissioned for this coin and is not found on any other coins.
