| Obverse description | Fourth effigy of Queen Elizabeth II as engraved by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicting a right-facing diademed and draped bust of the Queen rendered in high relief against a deeply mirrored proof field with a subtle dark blue coloured background evoking a night sky. The engraver's initials IRB appear below the truncation of the neck. The legend ELIZABETH II BAILIWICK OF GUERNSEY arcs along the upper periphery, while the date 2019 appears at the base, all separated by raised dots. |

| Additional information |
Guernsey has issued commemorative 50p pieces under royal license since the 1970s, and by 2019 the States had developed a reliable cottage industry in themed silver proofs aimed squarely at the collector market rather than circulation. This Cinderella piece belongs to a broader fairy tale series and was struck at a private mint under contract — Guernsey itself has no minting facility.
The .925 specification and 8g weight align it with Royal Mint heptagonal 50p blanks, though this issue is round.
