1989 Isle of Man 1/25 oz Gold Persian Cat
1989 Isle of Man 1/25 oz Gold Persian Cat
In 1989, the Isle of Man released a remarkably small and detailed gold coin as part of its celebrated feline-themed series. Struck in 0.0400 troy ounces of highly pure 0.999 fine gold, this 1/25 Crown denomination piece highlights the island nation's creative approach to coinage, backed by the official guarantee of its government. The reverse side of this coin features an elegant depiction of a Persian cat, which represents the second specific breed chosen to grace this popular series. Collectors and animal enthusiasts alike will notice the small letter U privy mark integrated into the design. On the obverse, the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II anchors the coin, surrounded by the clear inscriptions of her name, the issuing country, and the 1989 year of release.
