| 正面铭文 | ELIZABETH II BAILIWICK OF GUERNSEY · 2020 · FIFTY PENCE · IRB |
| 背面描述 | The reverse features a vivid full-colour printed depiction of an Avro Lancaster heavy bomber in World War II Royal Air Force camouflage livery, shown in a three-quarter aerial perspective against a circular pale field surrounded by a beaded border. The RAF roundel is visible on the fuselage. The arched legend ROYAL AIR FORCE and the dates 1939-1945 appear in gilt lettering at the upper portion of the reverse field, while the aircraft type name LANCASTER is inscribed in bold gilt capitals along the lower rim, commemorating the iconic bomber's wartime service. |

Guernsey has issued commemorative 50p pieces under Royal Mint-style specifications for decades, contracting production through various private mints rather than operating its own facility. This RAF Lancaster issue appeared in 2020 as part of a broader wave of British Commonwealth commemoratives marking the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Britain, a subject that generates reliable collector demand and accordingly gets issued in multiple metal variants — hence the KM#379b suffix indicating this gold-plated copper is one of several parallel strikes.
The Lancaster itself didn't enter operational service until 1942, two years after the Battle of Britain, so its inclusion here is thematic rather than strictly historical.
