Extremely Fine grade \/ condition. A great piece of history and a great coin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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').\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Treasure Hunter Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50760275624233,"sku":"IRL-HC-1967-BU","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/1540\/3049\/files\/DSC_4393_b20b090a-eb63-42c2-9ce8-11520770d222.jpg?v=1754601067","url":"https:\/\/treasurehunterco.com\/hi\/products\/1967-irish-half-crown-bu-great-coin-lower-mintage-1967-1-2-crown-ireland-halfcrown","provider":"Treasure Hunter Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
