| Obverse description | Right-facing truncated effigy of Queen Elizabeth II wearing the George IV State Diadem, rendered in fine relief. The legend ELIZABETH II ISLE OF MAN arcs above, with the date 1990 and the mint initials RDM PM positioned in the lower field. The portrait is attributed to the Raphael David Maklouf effigy, the third definitive coinage portrait of the Queen. |

| Reverse description | 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. |
