Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, depicting a Christmas scene with a snowman, a reindeer, and a Christmas tree, surrounded by the inscription "Christmas 2001" and the Isle of Man's coat of arms. This design was created by the Isle of Man-based artist, John S. Mills, and was specifically commissioned for this coin. The coin's obverse, like all British coins, features the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.
