Obverse description Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the George IV State Diadem, rendered in the third definitive portrait by Raphael David Maklouf, with the designer's initials RDM visible below the truncation. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the left periphery and ALDERNEY along the right, with the date 2002 positioned at the base of the coin. The portrait presents the Queen in a mature, regal style with finely detailed hair and diadem jewels. The field is smooth and unadorned, directing attention fully to the central effigy.

Additional information

Alderney's Golden Jubilee crown was part of a broader wave of commemoratives issued across British Crown Dependencies in 2002, most sharing identical or near-identical reverse designs coordinated through the Royal Mint. The States of Alderney, with a resident population under 2,500, has no meaningful domestic coin circulation — these pieces were produced entirely for the collector market.
