| Reverse description | The reverse presents a vigorous sculptural composition of rugby players engaged in a scrum, with multiple figures rendered in bold low relief, locked together in characteristic crouching postures; a standing player is visible rising above the pack. Below the central scrum motif, the stylised RFU Tudor rose emblem — depicted with stem and two leaves — is accompanied by the inscription RFU 150. The commemorative legend 150 YEARS RUGBY FOOTBALL UNION curves around the upper arc of the outer ring, while TWO POUNDS is inscribed along the lower arc, all elements separated by raised dots. |

| Additional information |
Jersey issued this coin to mark the 2021 Rugby World Cup centenary cycle, part of a broader Crown Dependency trend of leveraging commemorative bimetallics for collector revenue rather than circulation. The scrum subject references Jersey's genuine rugby culture — the island has produced several British & Irish Lions players — but the coin itself was a limited mint release with no particular production anomaly worth noting.
