Additional information

Guernsey has issued commemorative crown-sized pieces through the States Treasury since the 1970s, often licensing designs through external mints — this piece almost certainly originates from the Pobjoy Mint or a comparable contractor rather than any local striking facility, as Guernsey maintains no operational mint of its own.
