This coin was the fourth issue of what has become the Isle of Man Cat Coins Series, first issued in 1988. From the harsh woodlands of its native Scandinavia comes the Norwegian Forest cat, a feline steeped in the enchantment of ancient Norse legends. Sharply intelligent, courageous and ever alert, this powerful creature is clearly used to surviving on its own initiative as a somewhat rugged individual and is portrayed in splendid detail on the reverse of the 1991 cat 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.
