Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1995 Isle of Man 1 Crown coin is that it features a unique portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, designed by sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley, which is known as the "Pi Cheng" portrait. This portrait was specifically created for the Isle of Man and is not found on any other coins.
