A specially minted, limited edition, medallion commemorating the centenary of the outbreak of World War 1 has been produced by Isle of Man Stamps and Coins. A percentage of the proceeds from sales will go to the Isle of Man branch of the Royal British Legion. The medallion, which is available in a presentation box with a commemorative stamp, pays tribute to all of the Manx men and women involved in the conflict. Only 750 medallions have been made. On one side it bears the inscription 'Lest we forget – The Great War 1914-1918' – and on the other '2014 – The Manx nation remembers'.
Isle of Man Stamps and Coins is delighted to present a special postmark cover, limited to just 100 editions, to mark the Centenary of the Southern District Agricultural Society and showcase the work of the Manx Ark Project.
