Now that is a hell of alot nicer than the monstrosity they released for the UK for that particular event.

This does also demonstrate one other thing though, where is the logic behind the obverse portraits? 2002 and they are still using the Maklouf portrait, not that i should complain it could be worse it could be the Broadley 'old mugshot' obverse.

Is Alderney still using this obverse?

I am not 100% certain but I think they are using both on their commems I will dig through my collection and check.
