Description

This 25 ECU coin, issued in 1992, is a commemorative piece representing Northern Ireland. The obverse depicts the mythological figures Neptune and Europa on either side of a globe, showcasing a map of Europe encircled by 12 five-pointed stars. The edge of the coin features the inscription ".EUROPE EUROPA. N. IRELAND", interspersed with a small flower motif. On the reverse, a beautifully rendered female harpist and a shamrock are depicted, with "TWENTY FIVE ECU 25 1992" inscribed around the circumference, further adorned by two smaller shamrocks. With a limited mintage of 15,000 pieces, this coin elegantly combines mythological elements with symbols of Irish culture. This big coin comes in a capsule.
