1. Time to break out the Old Punt to Euro Calculator

2. No clue how much you’d get for the lot but I’ve seen some people make some really nice rings using some of the older coins. Someone doing things like that may make you an offer on the lot

3. 1=1.27

4. Central Bank of Ireland will convert them to Euros for you.

5. ill give you 50 cent and a stick of gum?

6. There’s only a few Irish coins of particularly high value, and with some exceptions they need to be in very good nick to be that valuable; otherwise it’s not much more than face value

   [http://www.irishcoinage.com/modcat.html](http://www.irishcoinage.com/modcat.html) for the predecimal, [http://www.irishcoinage.com/deccat.html](http://www.irishcoinage.com/deccat.html) for the decimal values.

   These all look to be in circulated condition, which would be Fine on those charts, if even.

   Some of the coins may be part silver and worth a lot more than face value due to the silver content. Pre 1942 Irish 1 and 2 shilling and half crown, pre 1947 English 6d/1s/2s/half crown I think.

7. ‘Bout tree fiddy

8. I’m looking for one of those old size 50p if you’re willing to part.
