The composition commemorates the bicentenary of the Scottish poet Robert Burns, who died in 1796. The legend BICENTENARY OF ROBERT BURNS curves along the upper rim, flanked by the dates 1796 and 1996 on the left and right respectively, each preceded by a dot. The denomination 1 CROWN appears in the lower exergue within a recessed panel. The design is enclosed within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Isle of Man Treasury leaned heavily into novelty coinage during the 1990s, issuing commemorative crowns on themes ranging from cats to motorsport to maritime history. This piece falls squarely in that commercial phase, produced for the collector market rather than circulation. KM#578 is part of a broader piracy-themed release that capitalized on enduring popular interest in the Golden Age of Piracy — roughly 1650 to 1730 — when the Irish Sea itself saw enough privateering activity to make the subject locally defensible.
