| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the George IV State Diadem, after the portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, occupying the central field. The legend ISLE OF MAN arcs across the upper left and ELIZABETH II across the upper right, separated at the apex by the Manx triskelion symbol; two additional triskelion devices appear flanking the queen's truncation at the lower field. The date 2002 is inscribed in the exergue. The design is framed by two concentric borders of square beads and an outer ring of round beads, the trimetallic composition creating a striking contrast between the gold-toned outer ring and the lighter inner fields. |

| Reverse description | The central gold core bears a cameo-style laureate effigy of the young Queen Elizabeth II facing right, after the Mary Gillick coronation portrait, set within a polished circular medallion. Surrounding this central portrait, arranged radially in the middle ring, are the ten Queen's Beasts in high relief — heraldic creatures including the Lion of England, the Griffin of Edward III, the Unicorn of Scotland, the Black Bull of Clarence, the White Lion of Mortimer, the Yale of Beaufort, the White Greyhound of Richmond, the Red Dragon of Wales, the White Horse of Hanover, and the Unicorn — interspersed with swords and sceptres. The outer gold ring carries the arc legend QUEEN ELIZABETH II / GOLDEN JUBILEE at the top, two crown devices flanking the lower field, and the denomination ONE CROWN with the date 2002 inscribed at the base. |
