Aanvullende informatie

The Revestment Act of 1765 ended the so-called "Running Trade" — the Isle of Man's institutionalized smuggling economy, which had made the island a transshipment hub for untaxed goods flowing into Britain. Westminster effectively bought out the feudal rights of the Dukes of Atholl for £70,000, folding Manx customs revenues into the Crown. This 1965 issue marks the bicentenary of that transfer. The .980 fineness is notably purer than the standard British sovereign alloy of .9167, a deliberate distinction for this commemorative rather than a continuation of circulating coinage practice.
