| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field features a detailed high-relief depiction of the Tudor warship Mary Rose under full sail, shown navigating stylised waves with her multiple masts, rigging, and billowing sails rendered in fine detail. Flames and smoke rise from a vessel in the right background, alluding to the battle scene associated with the ship's history. A twisted rope motif forms a decorative border element across the lower field. The denomination legend FIVE POUNDS arcs across the upper field, while the name MARY ROSE is inscribed in the lower field below the rope border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Mary Rose sank in 1545 during an engagement with a French invasion fleet in the Solent, watched by Henry VIII from the shore. The cause remains debated — sudden heel, open gun ports, an overwhelmed crew — but the ship took most of her complement with her. She was raised in 1982 after a salvage operation that became one of the most technically complex underwater recoveries ever attempted in British waters, and the Tudor artefacts recovered from the sealed anaerobic silt rewrote understanding of 16th-century maritime life.
Guernsey issued this commemorative as part of the broader wave of Royal Navy heritage coinage that followed the Mary Rose Trust's museum developments in Portsmouth.
