Ireland 2012 Proof Coin Set – 9 coins, incl. special €2 commemorating ten years of the Euro Currency

Description:

These sets are similar to the coins that circulate but are struck on specially produced, highly polished flans (also known as blanks, or planchets).  The Central Bank of Ireland has maintained their conservative approach to the issue of proof sets and, to date, only seven sets have been made available for collectors to purchase.

• Although these sets are limited editions, they do (sometimes) take time to sell out
