| Beschrijving keerzijde | A traditional Manx lugger fishing vessel under full sail is depicted in the centre of the field, shown running before the wind on a choppy sea rendered with fine engraved wave detail. The two-masted ketch-rigged boat displays billowing fore, main, and mizzen sails with detailed rigging, capturing the maritime heritage of the Isle of Man. A decorative twisted rope border frames the lower half of the design, enclosing the numeral 2 at the base of the coin. The Manx-language legend CLASHT ROOIN, O HIARN (meaning 'Hear us, O Lord') arcs across the upper field. The overall composition is finely engraved in a traditional illustrative style. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Isle of Man has issued distinctive non-circulating and circulating coinage through the Pobjoy Mint since the 1970s, operating under a separate currency arrangement from the United Kingdom despite the pound sterling parity. The lugger depicted here was the workhorse of the Irish Sea herring fishery, a trade that once defined the island's economy before the industry's collapse in the late nineteenth century largely ended commercial Manx fishing at scale.
The KM#1037 sequence spans two Schön varieties, likely reflecting a change in the effigy portrait of Elizabeth II mid-run — a routine update the IOM applied more frequently than the Royal Mint.
