Green engraving establishes a quiet insular gravity, anchoring the pound within the layered architectural memory of the island.
Design & Symbolism
Obverse
The obverse centers on Queen Elizabeth II, with the Monument to Freedom in Liberation Square, Saint Helier, placed within the background field and the three lions passant guardant above the central design area. The composition joins royal portraiture with Jersey’s civic memory, while the pale security window and map device give the note a modern local character.
Reverse
The reverse brings together Le Hocq Tower in Saint Clement and La Hougue Bie, the island’s Neolithic burial mound, with French and Norman text integrated into the design. The scene shifts from contemporary civic identity to deeper island time, placing Jersey’s coastal defence and prehistoric landscape within a single architectural field.
Collector’s Insight
For collectors, the Richard Bell signature variety belongs to Jersey’s modern pound series issued under the States of Jersey. It documents the island’s constitutional distinctiveness through a circulation format where Crown authority, local identity, and modern monetary administration remain closely linked.
