Was just about to put my 20p into coffee machine at work today when I noticed a strange 'tails side'. On closer inspection it was an Isle of Man one with a depiction of the Rally on the back...............with a Scooby closely followed by some other unknown - must have been the EVO as it was behind

I was well impressed. Anyone else seen one of these coins?

dnc

 

People are selling them on ebay with postage of £1

 

seen these sell on ebay for more than 20p......lol..

 

............................to suckers with a penchant for Scoobies?

Not quite the lottery win I was hoping for then

 

i've got one

 

Isle of Man 20p coin was issued in 1998 & depicts a scene from the Manx National Rally, featuring a Scooby & a Ford Escort Cosworth.The coin is unique to the Isle of Man.

There is one on fleabay for £1.99.

£1.99...Bargain i'll take 2.

 

What even if the p&p is 50p?

Mark

 

As long as its 50p all in. I cant stretch to 50p a coin thats down right scandelous.

 

That's the baby. Can make out the ironing board on the rear of the following car now - my eyesight !!

Mine is the ultra-rare 1997 edition - worth at least 21p

 

..

 

Maybe an Escort Cossie behind the scooby?

 

I've got a couple knocking around somewhere. You can have the 2 for the knockdown price of a fiver plus £1 for P&P

 

ive got one too, been on the lookout for another - but no joy

 

I bought one nice and cheap from ebay, just under a £1 including delivery, then I found one in my change about 2 days later! Then my cousin gave me one she found. (Although I can't actually think what Ive done with 2 of them, must be somewhere nice and safe) If you do check them on ebay Ive seen them go for as high as £10 !!

 

I'm gonna get one of them! Will be good for a golf ball marker!

 

They're in common circulation on the Isle of Man where they were issued. On the first SIDC Manx trip back in 2002 someone (I forget who - but thanks!) stuck £20 in the change machine at the hotel and we sat picking them out as souvenirs

 

I've had three.

1st one the mrs spent

2nd I managed to loose down the side of the sofa

3rd is in my wallet - no doubt waiting for me to spend it

Nice though

 

Blimey. (Dan makes mental note to stare very hard at his change when next at the bar).
