Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Token 1 Penny (Douglas Bank) 1811 from Isle of Man (British Crown dependencies) made of Copper is that it features a unique design, showcasing a sailing ship on the obverse (front side) and a crowned shield on the reverse (back side). This design was specifically chosen to represent the island's maritime history and its connection to the British Crown.
