I see all too often other ebayers selling Irish coins,and stating they are "silver" when actually they are NOT - below, I have the FACTS for all buyers:
-
1928 - 1942 Inclusive....Halfcrown, shilling and florin are 75% Silver
-
1951 - 1968 Inclusive...Halfcrown, shilling and florin are CuNi (copper and nickel mix)
-
1928 - 1940 Inclusive.....Threepence and Sixpence are Nickel
-
1942 - 1969 Inclusive.....Threepence and sixpence are CuNi
-
1969 - 2000 Inclusive - 5p, 10p, 50p and £1 are CuNi
PLEASE VOTE BELOW - IF YOU FOUND THIS HELPFUL. THANKS !! xx
