A series with cat images on 1 crown coins.The Isle of Man Crown series began in 1970, paused so to speak and resumed in 1979, paused yet again and resumed in 1988. The set really took off in 1988 when they decided to mint coins in every year. They eventually added a colorized proof silver in a number of years. My set will concentrate on silver issues, but I will get the cupro nickel ones as deals arise. I hope you enjoy my photos and encourage you to take a slide show tour of my set.
The beautiful Isle of Man. A 33 mile long island with a striking coastline of bays, beaches and very rugged cliffs. It is situated in the Irish Sea about halfway between Northern Ireland and England. It is a self governing dependency of the British Crown under her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the Isle of Man holds the distinction of having the longest continuous sitting Parliament. The Tynwald Court and House of Keys were established by the first Norse ruler in the 9th century, and despite many intervening changes in lordship, still govern the island's domestic affairs today. The earliest inhabitants of Man were Celts, many of whom were Irish missionaries who followed the teachings of St. Patrick. The Manx language-akin to Gaelic-remained in everyday speech until the first half of the 18th century when England prevailed. Now the Isle of Man is a thriving resort center with its own laws, stamps, and coinage.
Thanks to the Folder of the Isle of Man CU coin holder for the preceeding story.
Year after year cat lovers and coin collectors enjoy these wonderful coins. The Isle of Man government has issued a crown coin evry year since 1988 depicting a different cat to the delight of cat lovers and coin collectors everywhere. The cat coin collectin has become The Pobjoy's Mint most popular series. It is so popular it has been voted "most popular coin of the year" internationally. The obverse of the coin features the official portrait of Her Majesty Queen ElizabethII and the reverse design features a detailed relief of the featured feline each year, including the Manx, Norwegian Forest Cat and Persian among many others.
Each year since the initial issue, the Manx Cat has been cameoed one every reverse along with the featured feline. In the twenty fifth year the Manx Cat will again be featured. To celebrate the 25th year the Isle of Man will issue a stunning new coin that adds to the uniqueness. It will feature in 2012 the special double effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II which has been produced to celebrate Her Majesty's Diamond Jubilee year.
