Year after year cat lovers and coin collectors enjoy these wonderful coins. The Isle of Man government has issued a crown every year since 1988 depicting a different cat to the delight of cat lovers and coin collectors everywhere. The Cat Coin Collection has become Pobjoy's most popular series. In fact, it is so popular; it has been voted "Most Popular Coin of the Year" internationally. This award winning collection has already found a home with millions of proud owners. The obverse of the coin features the official portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and the reverse design features a detailed relief of the star feline each year, including the Manx, Persian, and Norwegian Forest Cat and many more!
The Turkish cat is now widely bred throughout the world and includes the white, black, and blue smoke Angoras. In warm weather, it sheds its magnificent silky coat and takes on the appearance of a short-haired feline. The 1995 cat coin beautifully captures the fine distinctive features of the breed for all time.
