If sixty nine is referring to the position of the cats in the flower pot, where does the coins fit in? Is it their circular overall curled up shape, resembling a coin?
This would probably be a good caption for the new review feature. It's actually very clever, but strays into that "too clever" for easy votes area.
First off, you have to accept/recognise that the cats in the pot could look like an embossed coin. Then you have to know some French or be bothered Googling it, which gives you the 69 'position' of the cats. Then there's the pun which could be read as "of the cat" or "ducat", referring both to the position of the cats and the fact they look like a coin, possibly even a gold coin.
So, yeah, very clever, but perhaps relies on too many factors to be easily appreciated.
EDIT: Sorry for dissecting the caption while voting is still active, Cap Auth. Hopefully a few more votes come your way
Hmmm...you credit with more cleverness than was present! The du-kat did not refer to a coin (my French is awful.) The whole caption was a pun on the famous French wine Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Well, not that famous because nobody got it!
Ha ha, that's hilarious Cap auth. Now I feel like a pompous art critic that expounds on the virtues of a painting only to discover that a homeless person has stumbled into the gallery and vomited on the wall ... Oh dear, not at all meaning your actual caption is vomit, just that my reading of it was so far off 😳.
Ahhh, now I get it, very good. I've never heard of that particular wine, I need educating in this regard. Maybe someone could send me a case so I know what I'm on about next time Châteauneuf-du-Pape crops up ...

A vote for the lunacy that followed your amusing comment.
I read it as cats being fans of the position.
