Where it came from
This 1998 commemorative crown was issued by the Isle of Man to mark the FIFA World Cup held in France. The Isle of Man frequently authorizes the Pobjoy Mint to produce limited-edition coinage to celebrate international sporting events, serving both as legal tender on the island and as highly sought-after collectibles for numismatists interested in thematic series.
The coin features a dynamic relief depicting a football player taking a shot on goal, capturing the kinetic energy associated with the sport. Designed by the artists at the Pobjoy Mint, the imagery was intended to appeal to fans of the tournament by blending the formal heraldry of the Manx coat of arms on the obverse with the contemporary, celebratory spirit of the 1998 World Cup on the reverse.
