Additional information

The Scelidosaurus is among the better-documented early armoured dinosaurs, with significant specimens recovered from the Early Jurassic Charmouth Mudstone Formation along the Dorset coast — material that has been in scientific circulation since Richard Owen described the genus in 1859. The Isle of Man Treasury has no particular connection to British palaeontology; these issues are frankly revenue-driven collectibles aimed at the thematic coin market rather than everyday circulation.
