| Reverse description | The reverse centres on a sculptural vignette of the Liberation Monument in St. Helier, with figures raising a Union flag, rendered in dark intaglio against a light guilloche field. To the left, a reproduction of the wartime 1-Pound States of Jersey banknote issued under German occupation is printed in mauve, bearing the signature of H.J. Ereaut as Treasurer of the States; the ghost image of the occupation note's text is visible as an underprint across the centre. The denomination 'One Pound' appears in bold lettering at lower centre, with a guilloche rosette at lower left and the printer's imprint 'THOMAS DE LA RUE AND COMPANY LIMITED' at the bottom left margin. |
