Interesting fact

The 1 Penny - George III 1805 coin from Ireland was part of a series of coins produced during the reign of King George III, who ruled from 1760 to 1820. This particular coin was minted in 1805 and features an image of the king on one side and a crowned harp on the other. The coin was made of copper and weighs 16 grams. It's interesting to note that the coin's design was influenced by the political and economic changes that were taking place in Ireland at the time, including the Acts of Union in 1801, which formed the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.
