| Additional information |
The Isle of Man Treasury has issued commemorative 50 pence pieces with unusual regularity since the 1970s, making it one of the most prolific small-jurisdiction mints for themed coinage. This Alice in Wonderland piece appeared in 2021 as part of a broader series marking the 150th anniversary of Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking-Glass, though Carroll's original White Rabbit predates that book by six years, first appearing in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland in 1865.
