The commemorative inscription HRH PRINCE GEORGE OF CAMBRIDGE arcs around the upper periphery, while the denomination FIVE POUNDS appears prominently in the lower field, celebrating the birth of HRH Prince George of Cambridge in July 2013. |

| Additional information |
Issued to mark the birth of Prince George Alexander Louis on 22 July 2013, this is one of several commemorative strikes released by Jersey in the weeks following the announcement. With a mintage of 95 pieces, it sits among the more restricted gold issues of the series — likely a deliberate production ceiling rather than a reflection of demand, a common practice for Jersey's high-denomination commemoratives of this period.
