Isle of Man Gold Cat 25th Ounce 1990

Basing a whole coin series around the different breeds of cat, the Pobjoy Mint began their Isle of Man Cat series in 1988 with the Manx cat. This particular bullion coin series offers a new reverse design every year, along with low mintages that are tough to beat. The Isle of Man Gold Cat 25th Ounce 1990 exhibits a gleaming shine from its proof finish and is .999 pure gold. The Isle of Man Gold Cat 25th Ounce 1990 is also packaged in a coin flip to ensure protection during transit and weighs 1/25th of an ounce.

The Alley Cat was chosen to bring in the third installment of the collection since they are the most common cats. Alley cats are also known as Feral cats and usually live outdoors, feasting off of scraps and rodents. They also are not the friendliest, staying true to their fellow cats rather than an owner. The Alley cat featured on the reverse is the first cat of this series to be sitting. Its long, slender body and tail are fully detailed, as a lone cat wanders in the background. The coin's purity of .999 is inconspicuously etched underneath the cat pictured in the background. The coin's weight and its legal tender value are both written under the resting paws of the Alley cat. A powerful monarch is usually portrayed on the obverse of bullion coins and on this coin, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is elegantly pictured, her youthful profile realistically portrayed to honor her regality. The coin's place and date of mintage are also included on the obverse.
