I am frustrated to no end!!

here's a nice proof that could grade proof 69-70... Ebay link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1998-Isle-o...0090734?pt=US_World_Coins&hash=item4d200b42ee
it is protected by a plastic capsule. send it in to be graded by PCGS or NGC.

You have me nearly pegged on housecats, but "hate" is a strong word. I merely have no love for them.

I still think the rendition of the cat is horrible, but not as bad as the 1989 that features a Persian cat:


...or the semi "artistic" renderings of 1993 and 1995:



...or the rotten flesh zombie cat on the 1994:



The 1990 alley cat one is better, at least it look lifelike, but still kinda plain:


Some of the newer ones with kittens are cute, but what's up with the 2001 and the 2004 being virtually the same design:

 

I kind of like it - but I would get a 69 and not a 70. Just my opinion.

 

Interesting observation on these, and I think you're right. Not very good. The zombie cat - if silver - could compliment the Zombucks.
