Comment
The link between the Bounty and the Isle of Man is threefold. William Bligh was married to a native of the island, Fletcher Christian (the subject of the portrait on the reverse) was from a branch of a Manx family, and Peter Heywood, born in the Isle of Man, was a young officer at the time of the mutiny, left in Tahiti,was trialed, condemned and pardoned for his limited participation.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1982 Isle of Man 1 Crown coin featuring H.M.S. Bounty is that it has a unique shape, being curved to resemble a ship's wheel. This distinctive design adds to the coin's collectibility and sets it apart from other coins.
