| Obverse description | Second effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, as modelled by Arnold Machin. The Queen is depicted with a draped bust, her hair styled beneath the diadem. The circumferential legend records her regnal title and the Silver Jubilee dates, separated by pellets or stops. The portrait is rendered in fine relief against a mirror-polished proof field. |

| Reverse description | A detailed panoramic view of Mont Orgueil Castle, the historic medieval fortification perched atop a rocky promontory on the east coast of Jersey, dominates the upper portion of the field. The foreground depicts the harbour below the castle, animated with numerous small sailing vessels and rowboats rendered in fine relief, their masts and rigging clearly delineated. The scene conveys both the architectural grandeur of the castle and the maritime character of the island. The legend BAILIWICK OF JERSEY arcs along the upper periphery, while TWENTY FIVE PENCE is inscribed along the lower rim, all within a beaded border. |
