Comment

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, created by artist Erick Lock, which depicts a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by a pattern of interlocking hearts. This design was specifically created for the 2010 issue of the Jersey 5 Pound coin, and it is not found on any other coin in the series.
