| Obverse description | Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, rendered in high relief against a mirror-proof field. The sovereign's draped bust is attributed to the Pobjoy Mint portrait. The circular legend reads 'ISLE OF MAN ELIZABETH II PM' around the periphery, with the date '1982' positioned below the portrait. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts five football players arranged in a dynamic, overlapping composition evoking the Manx triskelion motif, set against a deeply mirrored proof field. Three distinct scenes of play are represented: at upper left a player executes a high kick toward a ball near a goalpost; at upper right two players contest possession; at lower centre a goalkeeper or outfield player performs a dramatic diving save or bicycle kick. A diminutive figure of a lone player appears in the middle ground. The braided rope border encircles the design, with the legend 'XII WORLD CUP · SPAIN' arcing across the upper field and 'ONE CROWN' inscribed along the lower arc, commemorating the 1982 FIFA World Cup held in Spain. |
