| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central design depicting Tom Kitten, dressed in a jacket, standing beside his mother Tabitha Twitchit, both rendered in charming relief after the original illustrations by Beatrix Potter. The figures occupy the central field with 'TOM KITTEN' inscribed below them. The arc legend '100 YEARS OF PETER RABBIT' runs along the upper field, flanked by the dates '1893' and '1993' to commemorate the centenary of Beatrix Potter's iconic characters. The denomination '1/5 CROWN' appears in the lower field, with a beaded border encircling the entire reverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Tom Kitten issue belongs to Gibraltar's early 1990s run of Beatrix Potter gold pieces, produced when the territory was aggressively pursuing collector coinage as a revenue stream under Crown dependency arrangements that gave it unusual latitude to issue commemorative series. The .9999 fineness was a deliberate marketing choice over the more common .9167 gold standard — a fraction purer than sovereign-specification gold, largely to compete with Canadian Maple Leaf and similar bullion-adjacent collector products.
KM#216 is one of several Beatrix Potter denominations struck that year, the licensing rights having been secured through Frederick Warne & Co.
