Not representative of initiative says Minister
Plans for a coin to celebrate 'The Year of Our Island' are 'too much of a risk'.
Policy and Reform Minister Chris Thomas took an order in Tynwald early last year for the special, five-pound coins.
However, the eight stage process stalled on stage six, when a U-turn was made by government officials.
Mr Thomas says the coin doesn't represent what the initiative was really about.
