Sale
The official 2006 Annual Proof coin set of Ireland, issued by the Central Bank, this 8-coin set features all 8 of the circulating Euro coin signs of that year minted to perfect Proof quality. Importantly, this set represents the FIRST EVER Proof Coin set for Ireland as a member of the Euro currency zone.
Limited to just 5,000 sets issued, demand was so high that the Central Bank had to step in, and reduce all orders down to one-per-household. Unprecedented!
The one set in stock here was purchased in 2006 direct from the Central Bank, and shipped to Australia. In fact, it still resides inside the original shipper, with original Irish Post stickers! Inside, you'll also find the letter from the Central Bank explaining why only one set could be provided!
In this condition, this set is very difficult to find.
