Privy Marks

The coins of the circulation types of 1979 (year of the Millennium of Tynwald) have on them a small stylised triskelion in addition to the dieletters.There are one pound coins (KM-44) of 1979 which have on them the small stylised triskelion privy mark AND two small crossed oars, in the place where one would expect to find the dieletters. So this piece has two "privy marks". The crossed oars on these pieces are the only privy marks to be found in exactly the same position as one would normally have found dieletters. A dealer's advertisement from 1979 states that the crossed oars relate to the "Henley Regatta".The 1982 coins appear to have either dieletters OR the "Baby Crib" privy mark (relating to the Royal Birth). No pieces have been seen with both of these features.

The coins of the circulation types of 1985 (year of ?sport?) have on them a small symbol in addition to the dieletters.

The uncirculated two pound coin of 1986 (KM-167) has a "Viking ship in wreath" privy mark and no dieletters. What is to be found on the Proof versions of the piece - I am not too sure.
