Comment

Celebrated for centuries in Celtic folklore, the hare is Ireland’s oldest surviving mammal, having been present on the island for around 10,000 years! It was the iconic image that graced the pre-decimal threepence, and became one of the nation’s most important and symbolic coin designs. It told the fascinating story of Ireland’s cultural heritage that finally could be represented after almost a millennia. Now, in the centennial of Irish freedom, the famous Irish hare makes its triumphant return!
