Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, which was a significant event in the history of the Olympic Games. The coin's design features a sailing theme, which is fitting given the Isle of Man's maritime history and the fact that sailing events were held in the island nation during the Olympics. Additionally, the coin's silver content and proof finish make it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists and Olympic memorabilia enthusiasts.
