New addition to my Irish Typeset

ShadyDave

I'm very happy with my purchase and I'm slowly making progress with this set. I purchased a raw 1942 Shilling that will match this Florin nicely. Will be submitting the Shilling in a few weeks and I'm expecting a similar grade.

Thanks! Yeah, attractive Irish coinage is surprisingly hard and expensive to find attractive examples of.

Thanks! Here are two pics of the shilling among some other foreign coins that will be going to PCGS this summer. It has great luster and nice muted rainbow toning:

Very high grade Irish modern are genuinely rare. The 1942 is a more available date which is great for type purposes. Many came in bank mint sets which imparted outstanding toning.
