| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central device depicts a naturalistically rendered Whorl Snail (Vertigo species) in high relief, shown in lateral profile crawling across the field, with fine engraving capturing the distinctive tightly coiled spiral shell and extended body. The denomination TEN PENCE arcs along the upper legend, while the species name WHORL SNAIL curves along the lower legend, both in serif capital lettering. The design is attributed to engraver Mike Langman and occupies the majority of the coin's field within a raised rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Guernsey has issued its own coinage independently of the Royal Mint since the 19th century, with the States of Guernsey retaining the right to produce distinctive local issues even as the island uses British sterling interchangeably. The 2025 wildlife series continues a long Guernsey tradition of using native fauna to differentiate its coinage from mainland British issues — the whorl snail, a small land mollusk sensitive to chalk grassland habitats, has seen significant population pressure across the Channel Islands from agricultural intensification.
