From 1960s Ireland here is a set of seven different coins dated from 1960 - 1968..... halfpenny to half crown. They are all in fine condition and better, and include a superb 1962 half crown. They are absolute beauties.
The coins are by Percy Metcalf, (1895-1970) who won the competition to design the first coins for the Government of the Irish Free State. The rural farming and wildlife theme was known as the Barnyard set. There is still the farthing to add to the set and they come up from time to time on ebay.
This listed set consists of;
Half Crown Irish hunter horse 1962
Florin Salmon 1966
Shilling Bull 1964
Sixpence Irish Wolfhound 1960
Threepence Irish hare 1966
Penny Hens & chicks 1968
Halfpenny Sow & piglets 1965
Rest assured I do not use stock photos. These are the coins I am selling and the ones you will receive.
The photos were taken in natural daylight and have not been altered or digitally enhanced in any way.
I always combine postage on multiple items.
Thanks for looking.
