| Obverse lettering | ISLE OF MAN ELIZABETH II |
| Reverse description | A boldly rendered Viking warrior on horseback occupies the central field, depicted in full gallop facing left; the warrior wears a conical helmet and billowing cloak, brandishing a sword aloft in his right hand while bearing a round boss-decorated shield on his left arm. The composition is enclosed within an intricate interlaced Celtic knotwork border, characteristic of Manx artistic tradition. The date appears in the lower exergue beneath the horse, and a small Pobjoy Mint privy mark is present in the lower right field. The design evokes the Norse heritage of the Isle of Man with dynamic energy and fine sculptural relief. |
