A process is described for enumerating the Cayley graphs isomorphic to a binary d-cube for small values of d. There are 4 Cayley graphs isomorphic to the 3-cube, 14 isomorphic to the 4-cube, 45 isomorphic to the 5-cube and 238 isomorphic to the 6-cube. A similar method may be used for any graph with a prime power number of vertices.
