| Isle of Man - 1991 Norwegian Forest Cat Coin | |
|
The Norwegian Forest
Cat. 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 - a somewhat rugged individual - and is portrayed in
splendid detail on the reverse of the 1991 Cat coin. The 1991 coin is the fourth of the Cat series, and it has a beautiful Norwegian Forest Cat on the back and a picture of Queen Elizabeth II on the front. This coin is CuNi (Cupro Nickel) in a Brilliant Uncirculated minting. The contrast in the photo at left was enhanced to show the striking coin detail. |
