∙ 15y agoIt would have very little value. The 5p and other denominations of those coins were being used until the end of 2001, before the Euro came in at the start of 2002. Many Irish people would have kept some of the old coins, so they are far from being a rare item and of any real value as a collector's item.

∙ 13y agoThese coins are no longer in circulation since Irelands changeover to the Euro in 2002.
Unless they are part of a Proof or Uncirculated mint set or are individual Proof or Uncirculated coins and in absolute mint condition, they have little or no value.
