| Obverse description | Uncrowned right-facing effigy of King Charles III after the portrait by Glyn Davies, rendered in high relief against a polished mirror field. The king is depicted with a naturalistically modeled bare head, showing fine detail in the facial features and hair. The legend CHARLES III • BAILIWICK OF JERSEY • arcs around the upper periphery, with the date 2023 positioned in the lower field between two raised dots. The heptagonal planchet's flat beveled border frames the composition cleanly. |

| Additional information |
Jersey's holiday commemorative program has become a reliable annual fixture, issued under the authority of the States of Jersey rather than the Royal Mint — a distinction that gives the island's coinage its own legislative footing under the Coinage Act 1969. Charles III's effigy appears here in his first full year as confirmed sovereign following the September 2022 accession, making 2023 the initial complete calendar year in which his portrait anchored Jersey's commemorative output. The .925 standard matches Royal Mint proof specifications but production runs for Jersey silver proofs of this type rarely exceed a few thousand pieces.
