| Beschrijving keerzijde | Three Royal Air Force aircraft associated with the 1982 Falklands War are depicted in profile against a deeply mirrored proof field, arranged vertically across the coin's face: a Vulcan bomber in the upper centre, an Avro Vulcan delta-wing strategic bomber in the middle, and a BAE Sea Harrier at the bottom. The inscription 'FALKLANDS WAR 1982' appears to the right of the central aircraft. The arc legend 'HISTORY OF THE ROYAL AIR FORCE' curves along the upper periphery, while the denomination 'FIVE POUNDS' is positioned along the lower periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Guernsey's decision to issue Falklands War commemoratives placed the Crown Dependency in an awkward jurisdictional position — the island has no constitutional role in British military affairs, yet as a Crown Dependency it occupies a gray area that gave the States of Guernsey just enough cover to produce patriotic commemoratives that the Royal Mint itself largely avoided in the immediate postwar decades. The 26-year gap between the conflict and this 2008 issue reflects a broader pattern: anniversary coins of politically sensitive campaigns tend to arrive once the veterans are old enough to be honored rather than consulted.
