| Obverse description | The obverse features the youthful diademed and draped effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, as modelled by Arnold Machin. The Queen wears a stylized tiara with floral and foliate ornamentation, her hair swept up in a characteristic coiffure. The legend ISLE OF MAN arcs along the left periphery and ELIZABETH II along the right, with the date 1979 appearing in the lower field below the truncation. A small engraver's mark is visible at the base of the bust, and the deeply mirrored proof fields contrast sharply with the frosted portrait relief. |
