Additional information

Jersey has issued colourised circulation-style commemoratives sporadically since the 2010s, typically tied to floral or national symbols of the Crown Dependencies. The daffodil here references the flower's long association with the Channel Islands' horticultural export trade — Jersey and Guernsey together dominated British daffodil bulb imports through much of the twentieth century, a commerce largely displaced by Dutch industrial-scale production by the 1980s.
