<p>[QUOTE="KLJ, post: 47722, member: 1910"]Ireland was also weak economically. Stable, but little opportunity for growth. Which meant coinages were low. Because of the traditionalism of Ireland, once the nation got its independence, the people were also quite content to continue using their British coins. Although British coins did disappear around WWII (or the Great Patriotic War, depending on where you're from), Ireland's economy didn't grow much until the "Celtic Tiger" era starting in the late '90s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
