<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Coinsandmedals, post: 3794860, member: 107435&quot;]The inequality between English and Irish money has a long history (in favor of the English). This issue went unresolved until the production of Ireland coins ceased entirely. I have no reason to think this would not be the case with the 5/6 shilling coins. If memory serves, the Irish pieces weighed roughly 414 grains (26.8267 grams). I would be willing to bet that Numista is a bit off on their weight for the English piece and that these two issues weighed pretty much the same.&nbsp; I will double-check this when I get a chance and report back.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
