Pobjoy Mint struck piedfort Angels for the Isle of Man under a licensing arrangement that gave the private Surrey-based mint unusual latitude to develop its own bullion and collector series — something the Royal Mint would never have permitted on its own territory. The piedfort format, doubling the standard planchet thickness, traces its modern revival to a French practice that Pobjoy itself helped popularize in the British isles from the 1980s onward.
IRB identifies the engraver Ian Rank-Broadley, whose effigy of Elizabeth II replaced Raphael Maklouf's on Isle of Man coinage in 1998.
