The Isle of Man began the Manx Noble coin series in the late 1900s, adding a unique chapter to its coin history. This bullion series first launched in gold and featured iconic Manx symbols like the triskelion—three armored legs joined in motion. Coins from this series often show the current British monarch on the front, reflecting the island’s special position as a self-governing British Crown dependency. While the Isle of Man has its own currency, its culture and coinage are closely tied to British tradition. Today, the Noble coin program continues with modern releases like this one. Right now, you can order the 2025 1/2 Gram Isle of Man Gold Noble Coin from BullionMax.

The obverse of the 2025 1/2 Gram Gold Noble Coin features a left-facing portrait of King Charles III. This design, created by Glyn Davies, is the first official likeness of the new monarch used on coins. As is tradition, the King is shown without a crown, offering a simple and respectful image.

On the reverse side of the coin, you’ll find a Viking longship. This design highlights the Isle of Man’s strong Norse roots. These longships were key to Viking life, allowing them to travel far, trade goods, and build settlements. They also played an important role in the Vikings’ ability to expand their influence across Northern Europe.

Today’s Isle of Man Nobles draw inspiration from the original English Noble, first minted in the 1300s. That medieval coin was known for its detailed designs and high gold content, making it a top choice for trade across Europe. The use of naval imagery on the original Noble celebrated England’s success at sea—especially King Edward III’s victory at the Battle of Sluys in 1340—and reinforced England’s maritime strength.

Each 2025 1/2 Gram Isle of Man Gold Noble Coin comes in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and is packaged in a protective flip. It’s not only the smallest gold coin in the Noble lineup—it’s the smallest coin in the entire series.
