| Beschrijving keerzijde | A laureate bust of King Charles I faces left in the centre of the field, rendered in a style reminiscent of seventeenth-century portraiture. To the left of the portrait, the crenellated walls and gatehouse of Carisbrooke Castle are depicted in relief. The legend CARISBROOKE CASTLE arcs along the upper periphery, while the dual denomination 3 ECUS - 2 POUNDS is inscribed in the lower exergual area. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Carisbrooke Castle gained its most historically charged moment in 1647–48, when Charles I was held there under Parliamentary guard before his transfer to London and subsequent execution. The Isle of Wight Council issued this ECU-denomination piece in 1996 during the final years of the European Currency Unit's existence as an accounting currency — the ECU was superseded by the euro in 1999, making the entire run of ECU-denominated British local issues a closed series with no successor strikes.
