Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the coin is that it features a unique design of three race cars surrounding Queen Elizabeth II's head, which is depicted wearing a tiara. This design was specifically created to commemorate the Isle of Man's hosting of the annual Tourist Trophy (TT) motorcycle races, which have been held on the island since 1907. The coin's bimetallic composition, with a copper-nickel center and a nickel brass ring, also adds to its distinctiveness.
