Guernsey Ducal Cap of the Duke of Normandy 50p
This 50p features an image of the Ducal Cap of the Duke of Normandy on the reverse with the denomination above it.
The obverse features the Guernsey Coat of Arms which includes three lions, similar to the English Coat of Arms, instead of featuring Queen Elizabeth II’s portrait. This makes the 50p particularly distinguishable and sought after by collectors.
Although Guernsey coins are only legal tender on the island, they are popular among collectors because of their low mintages and scarcity.
The population of Guernsey is only 64,000, significantly lower than the rest of the UK, which is why the mintages of their coins is so much lower.
The Ducal Cap of Normandy 50p also has the pre-1997 specifications making it larger than the 50p coins you would now find in your change. This makes this coin even more collectible as a piece of the island’s numismatic history.
Please note this coin has been priced according to its scarcity and current market value.
