| Beschrijving keerzijde | An elaborate royal cypher of Queen Elizabeth II — a crowned, interlaced 'E' monogram — dominates the centre of the field, surrounded by ornate foliate and acanthus scroll-work in a highly decorative baroque style. The numeral '95' is prominently displayed above the cypher beneath the royal crown, commemorating the monarch's 95th birthday. The Roman numerals MCMXXVI (1926, the Queen's birth year) and MMXXI (2021) are inscribed within the scrollwork. At the lower portion of the reverse, a spray of coloured pink lilies is applied in enamel, providing a vivid contrast to the otherwise silver proof field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Guernsey has issued commemorative five-pound pieces through the Royal Mint and contracted private minters for decades, with the Crown Dependencies operating independently of UK legal tender law — meaning these pieces are technically valid currency on the island while bearing no obligation to circulate anywhere. The 95th birthday issue appeared in 2021, the same year the Queen's husband Prince Philip died in April, lending the series an unintended valedictory quality that the mint could not have anticipated at the planning stage.
