Why the pot of gold represent Irish?

It's Irish Folklore and it has it that if you follow the rainbow the "little ones" will leave a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. These little guys were rascals and always playing tricks, so I wouldn't count on that pot 'o gold at the end of any rainbow.MarcyAnswerLeprechauns made their gold from being shoemakers and because they danced so much they were always in need to repair shoes.It has absoloutely nothing to do with Irish folklore, and, like Lucky Charms, is a purely American invention.AnswerThe Irish scientist had a good understanding of the prism and like a lot of sayings of old the term "pot of gold at the end of a rainbow" is a shortened version of the original saying. What was originally said is "you are more likely to find a pot of gold than the end of a rainbow."

Why did the Australian gold fields end?

The Australian goldfields did not really end; it was just that the gold was harder to get to, so the goldrush ended.The Australian gold rush ended because the alluvial gold, that is, the gold which was able to be reached easily, was mined out. Alluvial gold sat on the surface and was easy for prospectors to find.Once the "easy pickings" ran out, only large companies had the equipment to dig down deep to where the reef gold was. There is still much more gold in Australia, but by early in the twentieth century, most of it could only be reached by heavy industrial mining equipment. This is the primary method of gold extraction in Australia today.


How many coins in a pot of gold?

Well the legend of the rainbow and the pot of gold at one end dates back to the 14th century Catholics. The leprechauns would put their gold in black pots and put a rainbow on top of it so that he wouldn't lose it (Not knowing that humans can see rainbows). Most often, when lucky peasants were to find these pots of gold at the end of rainbows, the amount of gold would vary. The usual amount of gold a leprechaun would store in these pots was around 100 gold coins. If it was an upper class leprechaun he would store not only up to 1,000 gold coins, but also his luckiness. Hope this helps
