Isle of Man's motto is 'Quocunque Jeceris Stabit'.

Queen Elizabeth II is Lord of Mann and represented by the Lieutenant Governor of the Isle of Man. The island is governed by a Council of Ministers, headed by a Chief Minister appointed by the Lieutenant Governor on the nomination of the Tynwald, the Isle of Man's legislature.

The only Isle of Man Crown produced in proof in 1977 was KM#42a in honor of the Queen's Jubilee Appeal. It is 38.5mm in diameter, weighs 28.28 grams, is 92.5% silver, and thus contains 0.841 troy ounces of silver (valued at, with silver at US$42.00 as of April 14, 2011, US$35.32). 30,000 were produced in proof and are valued, according to the Standard Catalog of World Coins, at US$30.00. Another 70,000 were produced in Uncirculated condition, as well as an uncertain number in Uncirculated condition in Copper-Nickel.

In 1978, Crowns in both Silver and Copper-Nickel were produced in proof for the 25th anniversary of the Queen's coronation. The silver coin (mintage 30,000) is valued at US$25.00, while the copper-nickel coin is valued at US$17.50.

In 1979, The Isle of Man produced six different crown designs, each in four different metals (copper-nickel, silver, gold and platinum), with the latter three metals in each case available in proof condition. The silver proofs are typically valued at US$25.00; the gold (1.2677 troy ounces) at US$1,250; and the platinum (1.5882 troy ounces) at US$3,000. Note, however, that the silver and gold values are below the current "melt" value of the coins (as of April 14, 2011), and so are probably understated.

Both countries use the pound as their currency but generally you can't use Manx pounds in the UK but you can often exchange them at banks for free. UK pounds can be used in Isle of Man however.

Travellers don't currently need a passport when traveling between the UK or Ireland and the Isle of Man. To travel on ferries or planes in these countries you will need ID (driving license or passport).

These coins are still potentially in circulation so, unless they are part of a Proof or Uncirculated mint set or are individual Proof or Uncirculated coins and in absolute mint condition, they are worth One Pound in the Isle of Man.

The Isle of Man currency (Manx Pound)(IMP) is pegged at par with the British Pound Sterling (GBP) and the Isle of Man decimal coinage, for the most part, resembles the dimensions, composition and history to the equivalent British coins. Isle of Man currency is "legal tender" only in the Isle of Man, and is not acceptable tender in Britain.

An Isle of Man 2001 cupro-nickel Crown coin (Elizabeth II), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition and the original packaging, could fetch up to £15 GBP.

The values quoted are the best possible for the best specimens in their grades, but may be significantly lower due to varying demand for the coin and the prevailing economic climate. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.

The Isle of Man Crown coin series are produced more as an export industry for collectors and investors than as circulating currency. They may have also been struck in silver, gold and platinum, the value of which is related to the current bullion values for those metals.

The larger pre-1997 50 Pence coins were withdrawn from circulation and demonetised in 1998. So, unless they are part of a Proof or Uncirculated mint set or are individual Proof or Uncirculated coins and in absolute mint condition, they have little or no value.

Taken from Wikipedia:

"The flag of the Isle of Man shows a triskelion, the Three Legs of Mann emblem, in the centre of a red flag. The three legs are joined at the thigh and bent at the knee. In order to have the toes pointing clockwise on both sides of the flag, a two-sided emblem is used.

The Manx flag is based on the coat-of-arms of the last recognized Norse King of Mann, Magnus III. A modified version of this coat-of-arms is still in use by Magnus' descendants in Norway, the Skanke family.

The triskelion has its roots in an early Celtic sun symbol that was also used by many other ancient civilizations including the Mycenaeans and the Lycians. The flag is similar to that of Sicily."
