| Reverse description | A central vignette presents St. Sampson's Church in the foreground, its medieval stone facade rendered in fine intaglio line work, with Vale Castle visible on the hillside to the right. Three sailing yachts with billowing sails occupy the middle ground on calm waters, evoking Guernsey's maritime character. A floral motif in rose tones fills the left margin, while a passenger ferry vignette appears at upper right, and the denomination £20 is repeated in bold numerals at lower right. |
