Coins offer an interesting painting challenge due to their size, detail and metallic content. Like postage stamps, the choice is endless. "AFTERNOON AT THE PUB" depicts Irish coinage. A chicken and her pullets, fish, bull, pig and the Irish harp. These numismatic designs, created in 1928 by Percy Metcalf, remained on Irish coins until 1969. In my humble opinion these designs are some of the world's best.
