| Additional information |
Jersey issued this piece as part of its Diamond Jubilee commemorative program marking Elizabeth II's sixty years on the throne. The black-and-white photographic inlay reproduces an archival image — a format Jersey had been experimenting with on collector-oriented issues for several years by this point, applied here to gold-plated steel rather than precious metal to keep the edition accessible.
The "photo 1959" designation almost certainly references a specific official portrait year, placing the image squarely during the early reign when such formal photographs were widely circulated across Crown Dependencies for official use.
