Interesting fact

The 1999 Isle of Man Summer Olympics 1 Crown coin features a unique design that showcases the Olympic rings and the Isle of Man's national emblem, the three legs of Manx, on its reverse side. This coin is a non-circulating commemorative coin, meaning it was not meant to be used as regular currency but rather as a collectible item to celebrate the Olympic Games held in 1999.
