Own part of Ireland’s vanished heritage layered with 24 carat gold for only €9.95!

An original five pence in a highly sought-after collector’s edition

Fully layered with pure 24 carat gold and accented in the world’s most precious metal

This unique coin is the ultimate tribute to our vanished coinage - preserving our nation's heritage. Ten years ago Ireland adopted the Euro and an important part of our heritage - our coinage designs - came to an end.

Introduced in Ireland on Decimal Day, 15 February 1971, the decimal five pence featured the same bull design as the predecimal shilling coin and was only struck until 2000. It is one of these original coins that is available to you now in a highly sought-after collector’s edition.

  • A genuine decimal five pence - not a re-strike or reproduction - last issued over 10 years ago
  • The coin is wholly layered in pure 24 carat gold, and the main motif is accented in rhodium-platinum, the world’s most valuable precious metal

  • Depicts the bull, which originally featured on the predecimal shilling
