Time is running out to have your say on Manx currency

Consultation closes tomorrow

What would you like to see on notes and coins when they are redesigned?

Time is fast running out to have your opinion heard.

A consultation looking to shape the future of Manx currency closes today.

Responses received will be taken into consideration by the Treasury as part of a review of the current designs for all circulating Isle of Man Government notes and coins.

Feedback is being sought from the Manx public, businesses and organisations on the current designs as part of an overall review, and responses will help inform any future changes.

People taking part in the consultation are being asked for specific ideas on what or who may appear on future note and coin designs, and to rank the following suggestions in terms of importance:

  • Local landmarks
  • Local nature
  • Historical events / social events of significance
  • Local artistry
  • Local person(s) of interest
  • Isle of Man achievements such as in industry, sport, arts, social issues / community issues to be proud of

The shape of the £1 coin is also a topic that’s up for discussion, specifically whether the Isle of Man should follow the UK by introducing a 12-sided version.

You can find the consultation HERE.
