Obverse description Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing the George IV State Diadem, as rendered by Ian Rank-Broadley. The portrait is a refined, mature likeness executed in high relief, characteristic of the fourth definitive coinage portrait used on Commonwealth issues from 1998. The engraver's initials 'IRB' appear truncated below the neck. The encircling legend reads 'ELIZABETH II BAILIWICK OF GUERNSEY' with the date '2003' positioned at the lower right of the field.

The denomination '25 POUNDS' appears in the upper left field, while the legend 'THE GOLDEN JUBILEE' curves along the lower portion of the coin. The dates '1952' and '2002' flank the design, referencing the fifty-year reign of Queen Elizabeth II.
