| Aanvullende informatie |
Pobjoy struck this piece for the Isle of Man, which throughout the 1980s and 1990s ran one of the most aggressive bullion and collector coin programs in the world — issuing annual cat series in multiple metals as a deliberate strategy to capture the niche collector market. The Maine Coon series was part of that broader feline franchise, which competed directly with the Krugerrand and Britannia programs on purity and fractional sizing.
The .9999 fineness was a calculated move; at the time, most sovereign gold issues settled at .9167 or .9167. Four nines gave Pobjoy a marketing edge with purity-conscious buyers.
