These coins are no longer in circulation since Irelands changeover to the Euro in 2002.
Currently you would be lucky to get more than a few pence more than face value for a circulated coin in excellent condition.
In many years to come, they may have some collector value, but only in excellent condition.
Keep them for your grandkids.
