2 Pounds - Charles III Billiards

Jersey has issued a long-running series of £2 coins celebrating traditional pub games, of which billiards is among the later entries. The game itself has deep roots in British leisure culture, codified under formal rules by the Billiards Association as early as 1885, though played in English aristocratic households since at least the sixteenth century.

KM#460 is a collector-targeted issue rather than a circulation piece — Jersey's £2 bimetallic coins rarely see pocket use on the island.
