Beschrijving voorzijde Right-facing effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the George IV State Diadem and the Victorian Coronation Necklace, rendered in high relief. The legend encircles the portrait, with the issuer, denomination, and date inscribed around the periphery. The portrait follows the Ian Rank-Broadley or Jody Clark definitive style standard for Isle of Man coinage of this period.

Beschrijving keerzijde An intricately detailed high-relief composition depicting a Norse mythological scene centered on three female figures, likely the Norns — Urd, Verdandi, and Skuld — who weave the fates of gods and men. The central trio is rendered in a flowing interlaced style reminiscent of Viking knotwork, with additional figures at the periphery bearing offerings including foliage and wheat sheaves. Animals and serpentine forms emerge from elaborate Celtic-Norse interlace borders framing the design. At the base, an antique-gold-toned banner inscribed with the legend arcs across the lower field in a contrasting finish.

Aanvullende informatie

The Isle of Man has issued Viking-themed coinage for decades partly because of genuine historical standing — Norse settlers established the island's parliament, the Tynwald, around the 9th century, making it one of the oldest continuous legislative assemblies in the world. That institutional claim gives these issues more grounding than most commemorative Viking coinage, which typically trades on romanticism alone.

At a kilogram of fine silver, this was among the last large-format crown-weight issues bearing Elizabeth II's effigy before her death in September 2022.
