>The Channel Islands and the Isle of Man are Crown Dependencies of the United Kingdom. They have their own legislative and taxation systems and issue their own banknotes and coins. These, in common with United Kingdom coins, bear the portrait of Her Majesty The Queen. However, they are only legal tender within the Crown Dependencies themselves.<
That's quite true, but living in the north west I often get Manx coins in my change, and I just spend them. They have never been refused, as they are exactly the same size as British coins, and no-one ever checks coins that closely do they?
