Sixpence: A Wolf-Hound 1928 - 1971
This species of dog was so particularly identified with Ireland it was
felt it ought to be included especially as it lends itself to a noble
and artistic treatment for coinage purposes. It was
recommended that the denomination be indicated by the word ‘Reul’ and
the figure ‘6’.
