The Isle of Man has long operated as one of the more prolific commemorative minting jurisdictions in the British Isles, largely because the Manx government retains full authority over its own coinage independent of the Royal Mint. This piece capitalizes on the accession of Charles III following Elizabeth II's death in September 2022 — the first change of monarch in 70 years, requiring the rewriting of the national anthem's first-person pronoun from "Queen" to "King" for the first time since 1952.
The silver-plated copper-nickel substrate with selective gold application is a production approach Pobjoy Mint, the Isle of Man's longtime striking partner, has used extensively on collector issues.
