This Irish Christmas Coin Ornament has an Irish 1 pound (Irish Punt) coin attached. A pair of polished green Connemara marble stones from the Connacht Province of Western Ireland connect the ornament to the hanging hook provided. The coin bears an image of the Irish Giant Deer. The animal was one of the largest deer to ever roam the earth standing nearly 7 feet tall with antlers 12 feet across tip to tip. Records show it lived in Ireland and throughout Eurasia 7,700 years ago. It is believed they died out due to starvation during the ice age.
