The commemorative inscription referencing the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II appears around and beneath the beasts, with the denomination '50p' indicated within the design. |

| Additional information |
The Isle of Man has long exploited its Crown Dependency status to issue commemorative coinage outside the constraints of the Royal Mint, and the 2022 Platinum Jubilee series was no exception — the island produced multiple distinct 50 pence reverses to mark Elizabeth II's 70 years on the throne while the UK itself issued a single unified design. She died in September of that year, making the entire jubilee coinage series an inadvertent memorial issue within months of striking.
