Quite simple really. In the 1960's the IoM Government were told by the College of Heralds that the "Legs" were facing the wrong way, and had been for a long, long time. The police altered their helmet plates, cap badges and epaulette badges to show the correct positioning. So, as a result, there are two Queen's Crown versions of each of the badges I mention. Other Government Dept. followed suite.
