Interesting fact
The Abyssinian Cat coin was part of a series of coloured coins released by the Isle of Man in 2010, celebrating different cat breeds. The Abyssinian Cat coin was one of the six coins in the series, and it features a coloured image of an Abyssinian Cat on one side, with Queen Elizabeth II on the other side. The coin was made of copper-nickel and weighed 28.28 grams. It was a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation and was instead sold at a premium price due to its collectible nature.
