| 背面描述 | Dynamic depiction of the iconic supersonic airliner Concorde rendered in low relief at the moment of take-off, with the aircraft's characteristic ogival delta wing and drooped nose clearly visible as it lifts from the runway. Diagonal speed lines radiate from the upper right of the field, and stylised birds are shown to the left of the aircraft, evoking flight and freedom. The denomination FIFTY PENCE arcs along the upper periphery of the heptagonal field. |

Concorde first flew on 2 March 1969, a French-led test flight out of Toulouse that beat the British-operated prototype by nearly a month — a detail that still quietly irritates aviation historians on certain sides of the Channel. The 50th anniversary in 2019 prompted a wave of commemorative issues, Guernsey among the more prolific producers.
The Anglo-French supersonic program cost an estimated £1.3 billion over its development, roughly ten times original projections, underwritten entirely by taxpayers after commercial interest collapsed in the early 1960s.
