| Reversbeschreibung | A seated New York Alley cat dominates the centre of the field in high relief, depicted in a naturalistic pose facing right with detailed fur texture and alert expression. In the upper left background, three birds in flight are visible, while a smaller cat figure appears in the right middle ground atop a low structure, evoking an urban alley setting. The Pobjoy Mint heraldic shield privy mark appears at the upper left, and a hexagonal mintmark is placed to the right of the field. Below the principal feline figure, the denomination legend Pt. 1/5 oz. CROWN is inscribed in two lines, flanked by decorative rope motifs along the lower rim. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Pobjoy Mint issued a series of cat breed coins for the Isle of Man throughout the 1980s and 1990s, a program that became one of the more commercially successful themed bullion series of the period. The New York Alley Cat issue is the peculiarity of the run — not a pedigree breed but a deliberate nod to the feral domestic population of American cities, an unusual choice for a royal-adjacent issuer.
The die error designation on KM#279.2 distinguishes it from the standard strike. Collectors should verify the specific nature of the error against known examples before purchase, as "die error" attribution on Pobjoy cat issues has occasionally been applied inconsistently in secondary market listings.
