	The Three Legs of Mann
		In the Isle of Man it is found on several Norse crosses such as one at Onchan which dates from around the 10th century A.D. Another design which appears to be related to the Three Legs is the Triquetra, or triple knot.
		The triquetra is also found on carved stones in northern Europe and, like the swastika, occurs on some of the crosses in the Isle of Man, as, for example, the Calf of Man Crucifiction slab, which is of Celtic origin and dates from about the 8th century, just prior to the arrival of the Vikings.
		The earliest use, which can be dated, of the Three Legs within the Isle of Man is in 1310 when they appeared on the shield of Henry de Bello Monte, Governor of the Island for King Edward II of England.

	1976 Silver Coins
		Britain, for example, reduced the silver content of its silver coins from 92.5% (sterling silver), after 1919, and further reduced this again after 1946 to zero, so that no British coins dated after 1946 were issued for circulation containing any silver.
		All silver coloured coins are now made from cupro-nickel, which as its name infers is an alloy of copper and nickel.
		This is an interesting coin issued to commemorate the bicentenary of American Independence in 1776, featuring a bust of George Washington as the reverse design.
