A rare set of Manx 10p coins which were returned to the mint before they could be circulated will go up for auction next month.
200 of the coins were produced in 1992 to test vending machines - but the design was rejected and now only 10 bought by an Island resident remain after all the others were destroyed.
The individually-sealed coins will be sold by Richard Winterton Auctioneers in Lichfield on July 5.
They've been valued at up to £500, but experts say they may well fetch far more on the day.
