5 Pounds - Elizabeth II Remembrance Day 2018

Remembrance commemoratives have been issued by British Crown Dependencies in volume since the 1990s, but Jersey's 2018 copper-nickel five pounds is notable for its selective red ink application — a printing-on-coin technique that had become commercially widespread among Royal Mint and associated issuers after its debut on circulating commemoratives in the 2010s. The ink is pad-printed directly onto the struck surface, a process that does not affect legal tender status but does render the piece unsuitable for circulation in any practical sense.
