For the year of 2017, Tower Mint Ltd on behalf of the Isle of Man Government has issued a new collection of circulating coins.
These designs offer a modern and up to date style whilst focusing on Manx and Isle of Man related landmarks, themes and traditions.
These designs meet the criteria for coins, as they are reflective of the Isle of Man. The collection of designs portrays a combination of historic landmarks, themes and traditions of the Isle of Man. The obverse depicts the approved Queen Elizabeth II effigy portrait, created by Jody Clark for the use on Crown dependencies and Commonwealth countries.
Fifty Pence - Manx Loaghtan
The design depicts the Manx Loaghtan, a breed of sheep native to the Isle of Man. The sheep have dark brown wool and usually four or occasionally six horns.
Coin comes in a Isle of Man Gift Pack.
