<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 126642, member: 39&quot;]Yes, I have quite a few euro coins from Ireland, as from any other member of the European currency union. The Irish Central Bank issues an annual set of circulation coins (in unc. quality) every year, in a nice folder with varying themes. This year it also issued a proof set, for the first time in many years.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for Irish euro collector coins, in 2003 two coins (€5 and €10) dedicated to the Special Olympics were issued. In 2004 there was the €10 piece commemorating the enlargement of the European Union, followed by a €10 coin featuring Sir William Rowan Hamilton (born 200 years ago) in 2005.</p><p><br /></p><p>This year Ireland issues a €10 silver piece and even a small €20 gold coin celebrating Samuel Beckett (born 100 years ago). Unfortunately none of the collector coins can be purchased at face value ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
