| Reversbeschreibung | A dynamic battle scene commemorating the Fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD, depicting a barbarian warrior in three-quarter view raising a sword above his head while bearing a large shield, poised to strike a fallen Roman soldier below who is armed with a spear and oval shield. The composition is rendered in bold relief against a frosted field. The commemorative inscription FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE 476 arcs along the left and upper periphery, with the millennium year 2000 inscribed in the left field, and the denomination 1 CROWN at the base. |

The Isle of Man has issued commemorative crowns prolifically since the 1970s, and this 1997 silver proof marks the 1,521st anniversary of the deposition of Romulus Augustulus by Odoacer — a date that no contemporary Roman would have recognized as the end of anything in particular. The western court had been cycling through puppet emperors for decades, and 476 was largely a bookkeeper's choice, imposed retroactively by later historians, most influentially Edward Gibbon.
KM#801a is the silver version of a base-metal crown struck in the same year, differentiated by composition and finish rather than design.
