| Beschrijving voorzijde | Conjoined laureate and draped busts of King William III and Queen Mary II facing right, William in the foreground with flowing hair and a laurel wreath, Mary immediately behind with curled hair and a diadem. The effigies are rendered in high relief in the baroque portrait style typical of late 17th-century English coinage. The circumferential legend reads GVLIELMUS ET MARIA DEI GRATIA, separated by stops, running clockwise around the periphery. A milled border encircles the entire design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
William III and Mary II came to the Irish throne under circumstances that made coinage politically charged from the start — their accession followed the Glorious Revolution and the forced abdication of the Catholic James II, who had himself issued emergency gun money in Ireland just years before. The Dublin economy was still recovering from that monetary chaos when these halfpennies entered circulation.
Production ran only three years before Mary's death in 1694 ended the joint reign, making this a short-lived type by any measure.
