This coin was the fifteenth issue of what has become the Isle of Man Cat Coins Series, first issued in 1988. The Bengal cat is a unique breed of spotted domestic cat and was developed to combine the look of the wild Asian leopard cat with the temperament of a domestic cat. Tame, if not entirely serene, today’s Bengal cat and its kitten are shown on the reverse of the 2002 coin. This beautiful uncirculated cat crown from the Isle of Man Cat Coins Series makes a unique gift idea that will please the most discriminating cat lover and has become a favorite of collectors of world coins with animal themes.
