| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bold, high-relief depiction of St. Edward's Crown, the centrepiece of the British coronation regalia, rendered in intricate detail with pearl borders, decorative arches, and a cross pattée surmounting the apex. To the upper right of the crown, a Tudor rose in full bloom with foliage is shown, while to the lower right appears the royal cipher 'EIIR' interlaced within a circular cartouche, flanked by elegant scrollwork. The commemorative legend '65TH CORONATION ANNIVERSARY' arcs along the upper periphery, and the denomination 'FIFTY POUNDS' is inscribed along the lower border, all within a beaded inner border. |

| Additional information |
Jersey's 2018 coronation anniversary issue is among the largest gold coins produced for a British Crown dependency, with its 311-gram weight placing it in the ten-ounce category favored by prestige bullion programs of the 2010s. The 65th anniversary framing is unusual — diamond jubilees at 60 years and platinum at 70 are the conventional milestones — suggesting the issue was commercially driven rather than timed to any traditional royal observance.
KM# 197 is a low-mintage proof, almost certainly struck at the Tower Mint or Pobjoy Mint facilities that have handled Jersey's commemorative output for decades.
