have worn coin from Ireland, Can't Identify

[ScottO]

its the Size of a Penny, reverse looks like Hibernia HOWEVER instead of Hibernia over a the Harp it says Ireland

the Obverse, has a portrait facing Right, only part of the Legend i can read is Patrick (goes around on the left) and some part of the Date 182(then it is worn away)

A harp of nine strings surmounted by a royal crown. IRELAND 1806 R. Parkes.

 

Davis 66 An unlaureated draped bust to right, a cross on the breast. St PATRICK: APOSTLE 432 + The cross is suspended by a Chain.

A harp of nine strings surmounted by a royal crown. IRELAND 1806 R.r.

 

Davis 67 Similar, but legend St PATRICK APOS 432 On the shoulder P The cross is connected to the rosary or necklet by a loop instead of a chain.

As last (upper string points to upper dot on soundbox). R. Parkes.

 

I know you said yours is dated 182? but could it be 18?? LINK TO IRISH TOKENS

[ScottO]

or it could be the st patrics 432 number, as the obverse seems to have the number

its a davis 43 by the portrait

From Barry Woodside's excellent site:

"The figures on the tokens represent the year A.D. 432, when it was supposed the Patron Saint of Ireland commenced his mission to convert the pagan Irish to Christianity"

 

I can see how a faint 432 could look like 182, can you make out 1806 below the harp on the reverse?

sadly no
