Ireland, 50P 1988 BU

The first Irish Threepence was issued in 1928 when it’s first coinage was struck. The last of the Decimal Irish coinage was in 1968. This Threepence is dated 1968 and in Uncirculated condition. You have an Irish hare on one side and an Irish Harp on the other side. 1968 was the date of the last ever Irish Threepence and the coins on offer are in Uncirculated condition, something you will not find in Ireland these days.

The last issue, Brilliant Uncirculated Obverse: Irish harp with the country name to the left and the date to the right Reverse: Decorative initial "O" resembling a bird, out of the "Book of Kells" and the denomination below

Because the population of Ireland is so low, the mintages of their coins also tended to be rather low. Here we present an Irish pre-Euro coin, the 10P in Brilliant Uncirculated condition and you don’t see many this nice. Supplies are of course very limited and these are in bright and beautiful condition.
