Tom Kitten is Beatrix Potter's delightfully disobedient tabby — a round-faced, button-eyed kitten whose fine clothes come undone at the worst possible moment. Published in 1907, The Tale of Tom Kitten is a comedy of manners set in Potter's own Hill Top farmhouse, where a mother cat's best efforts to present respectable children are undone by puddle-ducks and a garden wall. It is Potter at her most gently satirical.
This gold-plated commemorative celebrates Tom Kitten in rich numismatic detail. Struck to a Brilliant Uncirculated standard with a proof-like finish, this 32mm piece is plated in 24 carat gold and weighs 10.5 grams — a gleaming tribute to one of Potter's most lovably wayward creations.
