One interesting fact about the 1997 Jersey 50p coin is that it features a unique design on the reverse side, which depicts a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was created by the artist, Ian Rank-Broadley, and was used specifically for the Jersey coinage. The coin's design is notable for its small size and copper-nickel composition, which makes it stand out from other coins in the standard circulation series.
