<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DC79, post: 1441734, member: 38057&quot;]Thanks for your reply Bruce. I actually live in Northern Ireland myself and this particular coin was still in circulation. I&#039;m not 100% sure how I got it but I think it came out of a self-service checkout of a supermarket in Newtownards, Co. Down. I didn&#039;t notice the initials at first, but a couple of days later I was buying some food in a canteen, and the girl at the checkout handed me the coin back with a confused look on her face. She was Spanish and had no idea what &quot;RIRA&quot; stood for. I&#039;d never seen anything like it before, but a friend told me that there were quite a few of these types of coins in circulation around Nationalist areas of Northern Ireland in the early 2000&#039;s. I don&#039;t have my camera at the minute, but as soon as I get home tonight I&#039;ll take a photo and upload it to the forum, (If I can figure out how).</p><p><br /></p><p>David[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
