Isle of Man coin set Good circulated condition
4 Coins (1x 50p Manx Loaghtan, 1 x 20p Viking longboat, 1 x 10 Manx cat, 1 x 5p Shearwater seagull). Random year
50 Pence—The reverse depicts another animal species unique to the island: the Manx Loaghtan, a native breed of sheep, whose serene face is centered on the coin. These distinctive sheep are charactised by their four (or occasionally six) horns. The word Loaghtan comes from the Manx words lugh dhoan, which mean mouse-brown and describe the colour of the sheep’s coat. Metal composition: Cupro-nickel. Weight: 8 g. Diameter: 27.3 mm.
20 Pence—The history of the Isle of Man is rich in Viking culture, which is proudly honored with a detailed depiction of a Viking-era longboat, with a dragon’s head at the bow, on the reverse of the new 20 pence. The depiction of a Viking longboat was previously seen on the 50-pence denomination at various times from 1971. Metal composition: Cupro-nickel. Weight: 5 g. Diameter: 21.4 mm.
10 Pence—This reverse includes an image of one of the island’s more famous residents, the Manx cat. An indigenous breed prevalent on the island, its natural lack of a tail is believed to be due to a spontaneous gene mutation. The Manx cat has become an unofficial—and endearing—ambassador of the Isle of Man. Metal composition: Nickel-plated steel. Weight: 6.50 g. Diameter: 24.5 mm.
5 Pence—The reverse of the 5 pence depicts the Manx shearwater in flight. Known for their habitation along coastal communities, they are a welcome sight to sailors in transit, who know they are within a short distance to land when a shearwater is in the vicinity. Metal composition: Nickel-plated steel. Weight: 3.25 g. Diameter: 18 mm.
