| Reverse description | Two Tonkinese kittens are depicted in high relief on a polished field: one stands upright on its hind legs, left paw raised as it playfully bats at a butterfly hovering above, while the second kitten sits calmly to the right gazing upward. The animals are rendered with fine naturalistic detail, perched on a narrow ledge with stylised water below. Small birds in flight and the Isle of Man triskelion shield appear in the upper field, with the Pobjoy Mint hallmark at lower right. Below the ledge, flanked by sprigs of wheat, the denomination inscription reads '1/2 CROWN' and the gold specification 'Au. 1/2 oz.' with the 'PM' mintmark. |
