The weight, fineness and copyright are also included in the design. The reverse features the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II as well as the denomination and year of issue. Just like Sylvester™ the cat and Bugs Bunny™ the rabbit, **Tweety™** is also a member of the Looney Tunes™ and made his first appearance in an animated film released in 1942 entitled "A Tale of Two Kitties". Since then, the favorite pastime of the yellow canary is to provoke Sylvester, who then hunts Tweety and is punished for it. Tweety is characterized equally by his skill and his childlike naivety. The childlike aspect is also reflected in his appearance and his pronunciation difficulties. The **limited mintage of only 1,942 pieces** refers to the year Tweety first appeared. The **colored silver proof coin for the 80th anniversary of Tweety** is delivered in the original box including a numbered certificate of authenticity.
