Beschrijving voorzijde Fourth portrait of Queen Elizabeth II as engraved by Ian Rank-Broadley, depicted as a right-facing diademed and draped bust occupying the central field of the shield-shaped flan. The legend ELIZABETH II arcs along the upper border, while BAILIWICK OF JERSEY is inscribed along the lower border. The date 2013 appears in the lower central field beneath the effigy, with the engraver's initials IRB visible below the truncation. The proof finish creates a strong contrast between the frosted portrait and the mirror-polished field.

Aanvullende informatie

One of ten coins in the Royal Arms Supporters series issued by Jersey, this piece draws on the heraldic tradition of the "Queen's Beasts" — the ten guardians of the British royal coat of arms as arranged for Elizabeth II's 1953 coronation. The Unicorn of Scotland entered the royal arms through the 1603 union of the English and Scottish crowns under James VI of Scotland, who became James I of England. Scottish heraldic tradition holds the unicorn so dangerous it must be chained — the chain visible on the royal arms is not decorative.
