| Beschrijving keerzijde | A uniformed World War I soldier, representing a Manxman, stands in left-facing three-quarter profile in the lower left of the field, rendered in high relief against a dark background. He is depicted in full battlefield kit with rifle and pack. Surrounding him is a border of large red poppies rendered in selective colour printing, their vivid colour contrasting with the monochrome figure. The dates 1914 and 1918 appear prominently in large numerals in the upper right field, below which the inscription THEIR NAME LIVETH FOR EVERMORE is arranged in three lines, followed by the Roman numeral XI.XI.XI commemorating the Armistice hour, day, and month. |

The Isle of Man has issued commemorative crowns prolifically since the 1970s, and by 2018 the market for such pieces was thoroughly saturated. This centenary issue marks the November 11, 1918 armistice that ended fighting on the Western Front — the moment the guns fell silent after four years and roughly 20 million deaths. The Isle of Man itself sent approximately 8,300 men to serve, from a total population of around 52,000, a proportion that gutted entire communities.
Selective colour application on copper-nickel crowns was a production technique that gained traction in the early 2000s largely through Royal Mint and Pobjoy Mint contracts — Pobjoy struck Isle of Man coinage for decades before losing the contract in 2016.
