| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the Diamond Jubilee State Crown, a pearl drop earring, and a pearl necklace, rendered in high relief in the style associated with the Jody Clark portrait. The legend QUEEN ELIZABETH II · ISLE OF MAN arcs along the upper periphery, while the date 2019 appears to the right and ONE CROWN runs along the lower border. The engraver's initials JC appear in small incuse letters in the lower left field. The deeply mirrored proof fields provide strong contrast to the finely frosted portrait. |

| Reverse description | Facing bust of Queen Victoria in her iconic Veiled Portrait rendition, wearing the small diamond crown atop a flowing widow's veil, with a pearl earring and necklace visible at the décolletage. The portrait is rendered in high relief with exceptional sculptural detail, capturing the aged features associated with the 1897 veiled effigy. The abbreviated Latin legend VICTORIA · DEI · GRA · BRITT · REGINA · FID · DEF · IND · IMP · encircles the design along the periphery, reading from lower left to lower right. The engraver's initials LB appear in small letters in the lower right field. The highly polished proof fields enhance the dramatic three-dimensional quality of the portrait. |
