Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1998 Isle of Man 1 Crown Elizabeth II (The Renaissance; Silver Proof) coin is that it features a unique reverse design that showcases a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by a Renaissance-style motif, which gives the coin its name. The design was created by the artist, John S. Mills, and it's a departure from the traditional coin designs that feature the Queen's portrait in a more straightforward manner.
