| Reverse description | A large, naturalistically rendered European robin (Erithacus rubecula) perched prominently on a fence rail occupying the right and centre of the field, depicted in fine detail with textured plumage. Behind the bird, a lively urban street scene is engraved in lower relief, featuring period townhouse facades and a small child figure standing before a doorway, evoking a classic Christmas card composition. The denomination legend FIFTY PENCE arcs along the upper periphery in bold raised lettering. |

| Additional information |
Guernsey issues its own coinage independently of the United Kingdom, though the two currencies trade at parity. The island's Treasury has historically used its 50 pence programme to release themed collector pieces at a pace that far exceeds any domestic circulation need — this robin issue is one of several nature-themed pieces from the current series.
