Hi All!
Below is a response I received from the British Museum with respect to
the existance of Regal 1776 Irish Halfpence. Wow - they only took less than
a half day to respond. I'm not personally going to order a picture but if
someone from the group would like to do further communication, here's where
you can start... Have FUN!
Ray

> Coinage for Ireland, mostly halfpennies, was made in London periodically
in the years 1766-82. Type 3 of the Irish 'London Coinage' consisted of
halfpennies dated 1775 and 1776, the latter being slightly rarer, though
both are reasonably common. Counterfeits of genuine ones are also fairly
common, as is the case for most late 18th century copper coins of Britain
and Ireland.

> Naturally we have examples of the 1775-6 issue, and you can order
photographs if you wish. If you send details of what you want (b&w, colour,
size etc) to my colleague who deals with photographic orders, she will let
you have details of the cost. Her name is Janet Larkin, and her email
address is jlarkin@thebritishmuseum.ac.uk.

contention in a numismatic research group that I'm a part of, is: Does
there exist regal Irish halfpence of King George III dated 1776, or are the
know examples with that date contemporary counterfeits? Any insight you
could provide would be greatly appreciated and if genuine specimens exist,
could I obtain a picture of one.
