| Obverse description | Draped bust of Queen Victoria facing left, her hair swept back and gathered into a chignon at the nape, without a diadem or crown, rendered in high relief against a plain field. The portrait is in the young Victoria style, with fine engraving detailing the waves of hair and a light curl falling near the ear. No legend appears on the obverse, leaving the field entirely unencumbered and emphasising the sculptural quality of the effigy. |

| Reverse description | The shield of the arms of Jersey — displaying three leopards passant guardant in pale on a vertically lined field — is depicted centrally within an ornate scrollwork cartouche. A circular legend surrounds the central device, divided by two small ornamental stops, reading along the upper arc and continuing around the lower portion of the coin. A beaded inner border frames the legend, and the whole is contained within a plain raised rim. |
