This specimen was lot 30494 in Stack's Bowers ANA sale (Chicago, August 2022), where it sold for $10,200. The catalog description[1] noted, "ISLE OF MAN. Gold 5 Ounce (5 Angel), 1994. Surrey (Pobjoy) Mint. Elizabeth II. PCGS PROOF-69 Deep Cameo. A VERY RARE and highly impressive type, this enchanting offering--with St. George taking upon more of a He-Man-like appearance--resides at the cusp of perfection and wholly enchants the gaze of the viewer." The Isle of Man lies in the Irish Sea between Britain and Ireland and remains a British dependency. It is famous for motorcycle racing and tailless cats. Token coppers were issued for the island in the eighteenth century but large production did not commence until 1971. About 1980, the island fell under the domination of the Pobjoy Mint, which has minted and marketed dozens of NCLT commemoratives.
