One from Every Country #11: Bailiwick of Guernsey

Been a while since I posted in this series, but my copy of Coin World came in the mail today and after reading it, it reminded me to post.

The next country in line is the Bailiwick of Guernsey. This is a country I don't know a whole lot about, and this coin is the only item I have from the country. I got this one for Christmas a couple of years back.

The coin in my collection is actually uncirculated, but my scanner has many issues and isn't really able to capture it properly; especially on the obverse.

This is one of many countries that has Queen Elizabeth II on their coinage, the back depicts a large crab which fits into the popular animal themed topical collecting habits of many collectors.
