| Beschrijving keerzijde | A highly detailed, full-colour printed depiction of a Roach (Rutilus rutilus) occupies the central field, shown in naturalistic left-facing profile with characteristic silver-blue body scaling, reddish-orange pectoral, pelvic, and caudal fins, and a greenish dorsal fin rendered with fine chromatic precision. The denomination legend TEN PENCE is inscribed in raised capital letters along the upper periphery, while the species name ROACH appears in raised capital letters along the lower exergual area, both set against the uncoloured milled coin surface. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Guernsey maintains its own currency distinct from the British pound sterling — legal tender only on the island and not accepted in the United Kingdom proper. The roach was selected as part of a broader natural history series celebrating Guernsey's freshwater and coastal species, a deliberate nod to the island's ecological identity at a time when conservation messaging has become increasingly tied to commemorative coinage across the Crown Dependencies.
The colourisation was applied post-strike, a process that disqualifies these pieces from most circulation-grade holders but drives collector demand in retail markets.
