| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, depicted in a refined portrait style with a diadem and draped neckline, as designed by Joel Iskowitz. The legend ELIZABETH · II · DEI · GRA REGINA · ALDERNEY C. I. arcs around the periphery, with the date 2019 positioned in the lower field. The portrait is rendered in high relief against a polished proof field, characteristic of Royal Mint commemorative coinage. The design conveys the formal royal portrait tradition befitting a gold commemorative issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Alderney sits in the Bailiwick of Guernsey but issues its own commemorative coinage under separate authority — a quirk rooted in its distinct feudal status as a dependency within a dependency. The island's occupation by German forces from 1940 to 1945 was among the most complete in the British Isles, and Remembrance issues from Alderney carry a weight that purely mainland British equivalents do not. Most of its civilian population had been evacuated before the Germans arrived; returning residents found farms stripped and homes gutted.
