| Reverse description | A colourised depiction of a New Forest Pony in full stride, rendered in naturalistic tones of bay brown with a dark mane and tail, occupying the central field of the coin after artwork by Mike Langman. The denomination TEN PENCE is inscribed in raised letters along the upper arc, while the species designation NEW FOREST PONY curves along the lower arc in bold capital letters. The colour application gives the design a vivid, lifelike quality against the milled nickel-plated steel ground. |

| Additional information |
Guernsey has long operated as a semi-autonomous issuing authority, producing legal tender coinage independent of the Royal Mint since 1830. The colourised variant of this type is a collector-market product — applied after striking, not during — and while it circulates as legal tender in theory, it never does in practice.
