it may be a wee bit early...but show us your Irish..coin's,medal's,etc...

So, my wife's father was from Northern Ireland (oldest of 11 kids) and was the only one to emigrate from the UK to the US. I think my wife (and I) have 45 1st cousins over there. 1st picture is a statue of St. Patrick in Armagh. 2nd one is of myself in Clones (at one time had the largest number of bars per capita in the world), and the 3rd is of my wife's father's cousin's place. He was like a true leprachaun, with countless tales to tell; they were involved in the black market keeping the royals in sugar and 'luxuries' during WW2 and helped to get their family out of London during the worst of it. We have hours of film and video we shot while over there. Lots of history.

Proud family tale. My daughter works for immigration overseas. Proud of her too. House needs some paint. Thank you

 

Beat

Beat up coins are the prettiest cuz I like when they look like 200 years old. Their easier to get too. This coin hobby has all kinds of room for all kinds of collectors. As long as I can tell what it is. I would find a home for it somewhere. Oh. And a shoutout @lordmarcovan

 

Lamb bangers. Bet half of you members don’t know of lamb bangers. Look it up. To die for. So is lamb grizzle
