thedeadpoint Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 I'm sorry if you disagree, but this is not a coin in my opinion: You can read about the coin here: http://www.coinnews.net/2009/05/07/2009-tu...-triangle-coin/ I don't see a denomination on it. I think that is what makes a coin a coin.... What do you think? I guess the "coin" is also made by an independent mint and that may keep it from being considered a legitimate coin too.

Scottishmoney Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 Coin would be a bit of a stretch, but definitely NCLT. BTW it does say 1 Crown on the reverse, but in all reality in IOM that is not a real circulating denomination but represents some nominal value against sterling.

ScottO Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 nah its a coin. pobjoy mint is the offical mint of the isle of man so that case is fine and a crown is usualy the commemorative denomination of £ (25p coin) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmoneyeagles Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Odd looking thing... I do see the 1 crown, but didn't see it until I read down a few posts! At first site, I'd say, maybe a cracker, like a Triscuit...LOL I consider it odd looking, because to me, a coin is round... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henare Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 there is absolutely no chance in hell that someone on the isle of man would accept this as coin of the realm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
