Interesting fact

The 1 Crown - Elizabeth II (The Battle of Agincourt) 2006 coin from the Isle of Man features an unusual design element - a small shield on the reverse side of the coin, which is not typically found on coins. This shield is a nod to the coat of arms of the Duke of Normandy, who led the English army to victory in the Battle of Agincourt in 1415. The inclusion of this shield adds an extra layer of historical significance to the coin and makes it stand out from other coins in the series.
