Obverse description Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing a tiara and pearl earring, rendered in the fourth definitive portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley. The legend BAILIWICK OF GUERNSEY arcs across the upper field, while ELIZABETH II and the date 2011 are inscribed along the lower portion of the flan. The engraver's initials IRB appear in small lettering beneath the portrait. The coin's distinctive poppy-shaped flan gives the obverse field an irregular contoured outline.
