Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, depicting Thomas Wentworth, a prominent figure in Jersey's history, who played a significant role in the island's transition from a revolutionary government to a restored monarchy. This design was created by sculptor and engraver, Ian Rank-Broadley, and is exclusive to this particular coin.
