O’REILLYS Fine Jewellery, Watches & Silver Auction Starting 7th December 2022 at 12pm

Coins, medals and banknotes are always in demand by collec- tors, investors and for gifts. However, their quality and rarity are impor tant factors in determining their value, so holiday change and old well-worn English pennies are unlikely to be of interest. Gold and silver coins are usually the most sought after.American silver and gold dollar coins, English gold sovereign and silver crowns, and older Irish pre-decimal coins and modern Central Bank collector coins are all very desirable Early GAA medals, together with large Irish agricultural and college medals and French ar t medals are very saleable. Military medals especially British WWI, WWII and IrishWar of Independence attract specialist collectors. Banknote collecting has become increasingly popular in recent years. The Irish Lady Lavery and Ploughman series together with Nor thern Irish and early twentieth century British banknotes are of par ticular in- terest. However European banknotes from the pre-Euro years and holiday change may not have any value. A careful examination by our in- house Numismatist, of your col- lections and other accumula- tions of coins and banknotes, might well reveal the odd trea- sure or two. Earlier this year a collection of Lady Lavery war- code £1 banknotes sold for over €6,000 at auction. 11 LIVE AUCTION OF FINE JEWELLERY, WATCHES & SILVER • WEDNESDAY, 7th DEC 2022 AT 12PM Lot 559 Lot 535 Lot 558 C O I N S , M E D A L S a n d B A N K N O T E S Greg Carley
