The Tonkonese Cat is the breed chosen for 2004 and it features 2 small kittens. The Tonkonese is the result of crossbreeding a Siamese and a Burmese adult cat. The Siamese's dark markings turn into a lighter brown on the Tonkonese and the light blue eyes of a Burmese are grey on this breed. The Tonkonese kittens on the reverse, of this gold coin, are actively playing with what looks like to be a butterfly. The coin's weight, of 1/25th of an ounce, and the coin's denomination are both creatively inscribed below the playful paws. To honor the monarch of the Commonwealth of Nations, Queen Elizabeth II's youthful side portrait is designed on the obverse of the coin. She is accompanied by the coin series' title, "Isle of Man," and the year of mintage, "2004."
