| Obverse description | Third portrait effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, wearing the George IV State Diadem and a draped bust, as modelled by engraver Raphael David Maklouf. The legend 'ELIZABETH II' arcs along the left field, while 'ISLE OF MAN' and the date '1998' arc along the upper and right field respectively. The initials 'RDM' appear on the truncation, attributing the design to Maklouf. The portrait is rendered in fine relief against a flat field, framed by a continuous beaded border. |
