This coin has a obverse legend “ELIZABETH II    ISLE OF MAN” whether the coins issued later has the same order of the words like in all other coins in the series: "ISLE OF MAN  ELIZABETH II".

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reversed legend, with the words "ELIZABETH II" and "ISLE OF MAN" appearing upside down in relation to the queen's head. This design element was incorporated to give the coin a sense of movement and speed, reflecting the theme of race cars.
