Central device depicts the Stanley heraldic crest: an eagle displayed perched atop a swaddled infant (the 'eagle and child' device), both set upon a cap of maintenance. The composition occupies the central field, with the Latin motto SANS CHANGER arching around the upper periphery and the date 1709 positioned in the lower field beneath the crest. The design is rendered in relatively low relief consistent with early 18th-century copper coinage engraving practice. |

Central field features the triskelion (triskeles) of the Isle of Man, comprising three armoured legs conjoined at the thigh and radiating symmetrically, a device of ancient Manx heraldic tradition. The motif is encircled by a continuous Latin legend reading QVOCVNQVE GESSERIS STABIT, the historic motto of the Isle of Man, running around the full periphery of the coin. The overall composition is austere and heraldic in character, typical of the feudal coinage issued under the Stanley lordship. |

James Stanley, the 10th Earl of Derby, held the Lordship of Man as a feudal inheritance and authorized this coinage under that private authority — not the British Crown. The island had no indigenous copper coinage of its own before this issue, which was struck in London and shipped across to address a chronic small-change shortage that had plagued Manx commerce for decades. It was among the last coinages issued by an English nobleman acting as a sovereign monetary authority in his own right.
