Description | The meaning of "Irish" is unclear, but may either declare Loyalist support for the Irish / English union, or be a Nationalist proclamation for the independence of Ireland. I've chosen to list it as a Nationalist stamp, as the legend on this coin as well as that on a second example I've seen, are struck over the portrait. Purchased from John Sheerin / Derry, Co. Londonerry, N. Ireland. (Jl. 3, 2017) ($7). |
