Beschrijving voorzijde Right-facing draped effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland tiara, after the portrait by Arnold Machin. The legend ISLE OF MAN arcs along the upper left periphery and ELIZABETH II along the upper right, with the Pobjoy Mint privy mark visible in the lower field. This obverse die was originally produced for Isle of Man coinage and was paired with the Ascension Island reverse die, constituting the mule nature of this issue.

Aanvullende informatie

The "mule" designation here is the key detail. This piece pairs dies that were not originally intended for use together — a known production anomaly from the Pobjoy Mint, which struck issues for numerous small British territories during this period and occasionally combined obverse and reverse dies from different intended strikings. Ascension Island had no permanent indigenous population and no domestic monetary tradition; its coinage series exists entirely as a collector construct administered through the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.

KM#2 mule examples are scarce relative to the standard issue, with limited documentation on the precise die pairing responsible.
