Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Crown - Elizabeth II (Robert Cain) 2006 from Isle of Man (British Crown dependencies) coin is that it features a unique reverse design, created by artist Robert Cain, which depicts a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by a stylized representation of the island's coastline and landmarks, such as the Tower of Refuge and the Viking-era castles. This design was specifically commissioned for this coin and sets it apart from other coins featuring the Queen's likeness.
