The Coat of Arms of the Isle of Man, blazoned Gules three legs in armour flexed at the knee and conjoined at the thigh, all proper, garnished and spurred dates from the late 13th century.
The actual name of the eye-catching three-legged device is the triune or triskellion. QUOCUNQUE JECERIS STABIT means “Wherever you throw me, I will land.” which is the motto of the small Isle of Man located between Scotland, Ireland, and England.
That's Queen Victoria, of course, on the obverse side of the coin.
