Interesting fact

The 1994 Isle of Man D-Day 1 Crown coin features a unique design that commemorates the 50th anniversary of the D-Day landings during World War II. The coin's reverse side depicts American troops landing on Omaha Beach, while the obverse side features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This coin is considered interesting because of its historical significance and the fact that it was issued by the Isle of Man, a self-governing British Crown dependency.
