i have a 1983 one that a woman handed over as change in a corner shop :D

was happy about that, look at the prices for them when the TT is on and they rocket on ebay

Seen them at 30 quid plus around TT times,

Find a Joey Dunlop coin and they go for silly money when its TT time

I went in 1979, just after we'd gone over to decimal coinage.

I still have a genuine 50p note, issued by the IOM mint.
It wins me pub bets time after time..... :twisted:

We had the old and new English pound note circulating, the Irish one, the Manx one, and the the two Scottish ones, old and new.

After a while you just accepted any bit of green paper :lol:
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
