1971 Irish 2 Pence!


Technically it's 2 Pingin but pence is easier and that's what it's called here. I saw this coin at the flea market and since I only had the boring British version I added it to my pile. It's got a "Decorative initial "U" resembling a bird, out of the "Book of Kells"" and an Irish Harp as it's main designs. It has since been demonitized as Ireland adopted the Euro and it now goes for around $0.10.
