| Reverse description | A highly detailed architectural rendering of the facade of Buckingham Palace occupies the upper portion of the field, depicted in a frontal elevation showing the central portico with columns, the principal wings, and ornamental roofline details. Above the palace facade, within an oval cartouche, appears the numeral 200, commemorating the 200th anniversary of the palace's use as a royal residence. The lower field is divided by a contrasting dark band bearing the bold legend BUCKINGHAM PALACE in two lines, flanked by fleurs-de-lis ornaments. The denomination 50p appears at the base, also flanked by fleurs-de-lis. |

| Additional information |
Jersey's Crown dependency status gives its Treasury unusual latitude to issue commemorative coinage independent of Royal Mint approval cycles, which explains the steady stream of gold-plated pieces bearing subjects — Buckingham Palace among them — that the mainland rarely prioritizes. The .999 gold plating on copper-nickel flans is a production method that became commercially dominant in the commemorative market after the 1990s, when surface deposition technology made thin, consistent plating economically viable at scale.
