The Isle of Man

Situated in the Irish Sea, the Isle of Man has a unique constitutional history and government. The Norse Viking kings who ruled it until 1265 established its parliament of Tynwald (Old Norse Thingvøllr), the oldest continuous parliamentary assembly in the world. After a period when its rule passed between England and Scotland it came under the English crown. Henry IV, (1399 - 1413), granted it to Sir John Stanley whose descendants, the Earls of Derby and, through the female line, the Dukes of Atholl, were Lords of Man until 1765, when its "regalities" were revested by purchase in the British Crown. The modern Tynwald consists of a Lieutenant Governor, who is the Queen's representative, a popularly elected lower house, known as the Keys, and an upper house, the Legislative Council.

Man had its own coins, all of which bore the emblem of the three legs and the motto"Quocunque jeceris stabit" (which ever way I am thrown I will stand), from 1679, when an act of Tynwald made the tokens issued by John Murray legal tender, until 1840, when the Victorian issue of 1839 was withdrawn from circulation. since that time British and Irish coins and banknotes have been current. In 1961, the Island issued its own banknotes, in denomination of £5, £1 and 10s.

The proof set comes in a square green presentation box with a gold foil motto on its outer lid below the three legs in a shield. The inner lid is also foil blocked with the following inscription:

THE FIRST GOLD COINAGE OF
THE ISLE OF MAN 1965
ONE OF 1,000 PROOF SETS

The obverse features Thomas Humphrey Paget's portrait of Elizabeth II and the inscription:

BICENTENARY OF THE REVESTMENT ACT 1765 1965.
