| Obverse description | Right-facing crowned effigy of Queen Elizabeth II after the fourth definitive portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicting the Queen wearing the George IV State Diadem, drop earrings, and a pearl necklace. The finely detailed bust occupies the central field against a mirror-polished background, surrounded by a toothed border. The circumferential legend reads 'ELIZABETH · II · DEI · GRA REGINA · ALDERNEY C. I.' with the date '2019' appearing in the lower exergue. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a dynamic composition by Joel Iskowitz depicting multiple relief-sculpted Flanders poppies clustered predominantly along the right side of the field, their petals and stamens rendered in fine detail. Behind them, a background of tangled barbed wire rendered in incuse cross-hatching fills the left field, evoking the desolation of the First World War battlefields. The commemorative legend 'LEST WE FORGET' is inscribed across the centre of the design in bold capital letters, overlapping the barbed wire motif. The denomination '£5' appears in the lower exergue beneath the floral grouping. |
