Original
Why do you think these are reproductions? (I don't believe that the Irish government ever re-issued them.)

Okay. Thank you for the information. I have no idea about stamps. I just loved collecting them as a teenager because they were really cool looking.

That's what I have said before. They are not reproductions.... either used or if they are fully gummed, then C.T.O.'s..... :-)

They still are really cool, I think! These are stamps of Ireland, first issued on June 30, 1944 to celebrate the 300th Anniversary of the death of Ireland's major historian, Father Michael O'Cleary. The emerald, 1/2 Pence, is #128 and the the reddish-brown, 1 Shilling is #129. Notice that the design of the stamp features the kind of hand calligraphy he used to write that history with quill pen and ink on parchment -- what a formidable task of a lifetime! Good Luck!
