| Obverse description | Right-facing draped bust of Queen Elizabeth II wearing a tiara, after the effigy designed by Arnold Machin. The legend ISLE OF MAN curves along the left periphery and ELIZABETH II along the right, with the date 1982 positioned in the lower exergue. The portrait is rendered in high relief characteristic of proof coinage, with fine detail visible in the hair and drapery. The field is mirror-polished, providing strong contrast against the frosted devices. |
