| Reverse description | A colourfully printed vintage 1940 Blackpool Fire Service appliance, depicted in vivid red with ladder equipment mounted to the roof, dominates the centre of the field in selective colour print. Behind the fire engine, a monochrome engraved cityscape features the distinctive domed façade of the Winter Gardens complex, with the legend WINTER GARDENS legible across the arch. The denomination FIFTY PENCE is inscribed in bold lettering along the upper arc, while the date and location inscription 1940 BLACKPOOL appears along the lower border exergue area. |

| Additional information |
Jersey has issued an extensive run of 50p pieces honoring British fire brigades, and this Blackpool entry sits within a collector-driven program rather than any operational monetary mandate — these are produced exclusively for the numismatic market and will not see a teller's drawer. The selective colour application is applied after striking, a process that can occasionally show minor registration inconsistencies across the series; worth examining closely on any example before purchase.
