Each year since 1988, the Isle of Man Government has released an annual coin depicting a different beautiful cat. Each of the coins subsequent to the first coin also shows a small Manx cat in the background. The Manx cat is a breed of cat that is naturally missing its tail (one of only three breeds of "tail-less cats"), and cat experts disagree as to the exact place of origin for the Manx cat. Although it is unlikely that the Manx cat originated on the Isle of Man, this country has adopted the Manx cat as its national symbol (along with the Queen, of course). That's why every Isle of Man cat coin has a Manx cat appearing somewhere on it.
This auction is for one Isle of Man 1993 cat coin that has a face value of one crown. This coin is the sixth of the series, and it has a beautiful Maine Coon Cat on the back and a picture of Queen Elizabeth II on the front.

The Maine Coon Cat is a beautiful large cat that comes in many colors and patterns, although it is best known for the brown tabby variety. It has a muscular, broad-chested body and wide-set legs and large paws. The Maine Coon is slow to mature, often not reaching full development until three to four years of age. It is a gentle, loyal breed. They make wonderful family pets and get along well with children and dogs. They are a vocal breed, with a variety of meows, trills and chirps to make up their vocabularies. They are sociable and like to help their owners with any project, especially when the owner is reading or working on the crossword puzzle.
The coin is CuNi (Cupro Nickel) in a Brilliant Uncirculated condition. This is a large coin -- it is approximately 38.6 mm in diameter, which is slightly larger than the size of a United States Eisenhower dollar. The photo below was enlarged to approximately 200 percent of the actual size. These beautiful cat coins are extremely popular with cat enthusiasts around the world, and they would make a "purrfect" and unique gift for any cat person!
