Collector coins / Re: Ireland: The 2018/2019 Program

« Last post by chrisild on Today at 02:09:27 PM »

Oops, here is the Rory Gallagher coin image. All three are surcharged proof-only issues.

The 2019 designs are not known yet; there will be two €15 collector coins it seems:
* 100 Years of Transatlantic Aviation, and
* Phil Lynott (1949-1986), of Thin Lizzy fame, born 70 years ago.

Edit - The design competitions for the two 2019 coins are still in full swing. See here ...

« Last post by chrisild on Today at 02:01:09 PM »

The Irish central bank has an overview of its 2018-2019 collector coins here. It lists the three €15 pieces issued in 2018 ...

* Bram Stoker's "Dracula" (see this topic)
* Rory Gallagher (1948-1995) born 70 years ago (Modern Irish Musicians series) and
* 100 Years Voting Rights for Women

Yep, it is part of this new "Failed museums" topic. There is a link to that topic in this forum's overview, but you need to know that this new topic originated here.

Sorry, I don't know. The 2019 program refers to products that the mint can make a profit with.   I just checked a private euro mintages site (in German; this is the page about France), but it does not say anything about 2019 either ...

I replied to Robs post re museums at 10.40 and it's now gone 

Peter moved it to the living room.  Probably a good idea   

Actually, I am a bit busy just now to take this further, but otherwise I would probably need it moving to controversial subjects   

Best Wishes

Not used for payments / Golden Medal Gum tokens

« Last post by Simon68 on Today at 01:21:52 PM »

Hello everyone,
Wondered whether you lovely people can help.

We have probably all seen the Golden Medal Gum Tokens with the flat-capped boy on one side blowing a huge bubble whilst on the reverse side one of 30 plus various sports.

I am trying to compile a piece of work on these tokens and want to make sure that I have a full “working set” so if you have any you could “donate” or allow me to purchase from you, then I would be extremely grateful.

Regards. Simon

Edit: I see it's been moved to the living room, perhaps a message should appear if a post is moved ??
