    Get yer Irish on in time for Saint Paddy's Day AND a cute li'l bunny rabbit in time for Easter! All with the same coin! :D

    Offered here is a nice scarce-ish little Irish threepence with harp & hare.

    KM4, NGC AU58. 800,000 minted.

    Asking $45 delivered to US addresses. Buyers outside USA pay $42 plus actual shipping cost.

    (Yes, I'm essentially asking the MS60 price for an AU58 coin, but hey, you're getting a slab, here. And I assure you it looks better than the photos.)
