<p>[QUOTE="Collecting Nut, post: 26065236, member: 74863"][USER=153164]@The Half Dime[/USER] Hibernia coins can be found in your Red Book in the Colonial Issues section. They were intended for Ireland but were unpopular so they were sent to the American colonies. They were only struck for three years, 1722, 1723 and 1724. They were only struck as Farthing and Halfpennies but in several varieties. The type intended for Ireland had a seated figure with a harp on the reverse side and the word HIBERNIA. I can make out HIB and what looks to be a harp. Too worn to tell from photos otherwise.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
