| Obverse lettering | ELIZABETH II ALDERNEY RDM 2006 |
| Reverse description | Central frosted field features a three-quarter facing bust of Sir Isaac Newton, portrayed in the style of a late 17th-century gentleman wearing a full flowing periwig and open-necked coat, set against a deeply mirrored background. To the lower left of the bust, a circular emblem depicts a prism refracting a beam of light into a spectrum, referencing Newton's landmark optical discoveries. The legend SIR ISAAC NEWTON arcs across the upper border of an inner raised ring, while FIVE POUNDS is inscribed along the lower border. The design is framed by a raised outer border ring, creating a distinctive two-zone composition. |
