By the way, we don't have those coins anymore , we now have the Euro, which has a harp on one side. The coins are not as durablea s the old stuff, they tarnish too easily.
The fish is a Salmon. In Irish mythology it was called the Salmon of Knowledge, anyone who could catch and then eat it had the gift of wisdom. It is central to the Fianna stories.. the founding myths of Ireland written down between the 7th and 10th centuries, but probably older, Finn the hero eact the Salmon of Knowleged and that gains him entry to the Kingdom of Tara, which he will eventually rule.
