1940 Irish Half Crown. AU grade / condition. A great piece of history and a great coin. Only 752,000 made!
The half crown (2s 6d) (Irish: leath choróin) coin was a subdivision of the pre-decimal Irish pound, worth 1⁄8 of a pound. The half crown was commonly called "two and six" due to its value of two shillings and sixpence (indicated on the coin itself as '2s 6d').
The original minting of the coin from 1928 to 1943 contained 75% silver, a higher content than the equivalent British coin. The silver coins were quite distinguishable as they had a whiter appearance than the later cupronickel variety minted from 1951. The silver coins wore less well. The subsequent cupronickel coin was 75% copper and 25% nickel.

I bought a few, especially since I'm overseas and postage costs can be extremely high, but the delivery fee was why I chose this seller - it wasn't exorbitant for a change! Given this alone, I'll be back! The coins were packed flat (letter style), encased in plastic covering and not touching each other to prevent damage during postage - despite being on the other side of the world, they arrived safely - and quickly! Thank you so much! Photo included is just an example of a couple of the coins from the order I received. HideReviewed ProductPosted on
