Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1987 Elizabeth II (Fremantle) 1 Crown coin from the Isle of Man is that it features a unique reverse design that commemorates the 150th anniversary of the arrival of the first convicts in Western Australia. The coin's reverse depicts a scene of convicts disembarking from a ship, with the Fremantle Lighthouse in the background. This design was created by artist Michael Hibbit, and it is not found on any other coin in the series.
