Which places in the British Isles end in 'shire'?

One presumes you mean 'at the present time'. Shires are counties, and counties are political divisions subject to change. Many of the old counties no longer have a physical existence, though their inhabitants will still insist they live there. There are people in Dumfries and Galloway, for example, who still insist that they live in Dumfriesshire. However, the official list since 1998 has been as follows:
Aberdeenshire (Abers)
Bedfordshire (Bed)
Berkshire (Berks)
Buckinghamshire (Buk)
Cambridgeshire (Cambs)
Carmarthenshire (Carmar)
Cheshire (Ches)
Clackmannanshire (Cla)
Denbighshire (De)
Derbyshire (Derby)
East Ayrshire (E Ayr)
East Dunbartonshire (E Dun)
East Renfrewshire (E Rn)
East Riding of Yorkshire (East Yorks)
Flintshire (F)
Gloucestershire (Glos)
Hampshire (Hants)
Herefordshire (Heref)
Hertfordshire (Hert)
Lancashire (Lancs)
Leicestershire (Leics)
Lincolnshire (Lincs)
Monmouthshire (Mon)
North Ayrshire (N Ayr)
North Lanarkshire (N Lnk)
North Yorkshire
Northamptonshire (NHant)
Nottinghamshire (Not)
Oxfordshire (Oxfd)
Pembrokeshire (Pem)
Renfrewshire (Ren)
Shropshire (Shrop)
South Ayrshire (S Ayr)
South Lanarkshire (South Lnk)
South Yorkshire (South Yrks)
Staffordshire (Staff)
Warwickshire (War)
West Dunbartonshire (W Dun)
West Yorkshire (West Yorks)
Wiltshire (Wilts)
Worcestershire (Wor) This gives us 41. BUT there are counties of which, despite both their official and historic names, are frequently spoken of with the suffix -shire. people talk of Devonshire and Dorsetshire, for example. Prominent among this class are: Devon
Dorset
Rutland (R)
Somerset So one could say, 45. Of course, if you think of historic counties, the list would be somewhat different; and again, most people still think in terms of the old order. Thus, historic Lancashire (my own county) has been split into Lancashire, Greater Manchester, Merseyside and a part of Cumbia; but we all think of ourselves still as Lancastrians.

How do you catch a leprechaun if you are not located in Ireland and live in Nevada?

Due to the Leprechaun's warm blooded and small body, it does not thrive well in desert environments such as Nevada, except for Lake Tahoe. As a small animal, Leprechauns require much water, and with their fast metabolisms, much food as well. Personally I live in California, so Leprechauns run the streets, but in Nevada I would recommend a very large green house, one able to reproduce Rainbows so Leprechauns may feel more comfortable in the new environment. This will help them reproduce and thrive. I hope this answered your question. Good luck.

What are some pros and cons of Ireland's health care?

The major problem is getting access to the health system. Waiting times can be quite long, for regular appointments, non-emergency operations and emergency services. Having private health insurance can speed up access, but this sets up a two-tier system, as not everyone can afford private health insurance. The major pro is that when you get into the health system you are looked after well. There are good staff and facilities.

Can you help me i have an Irish punt coin with a rare fault on the edge there should be a channel but this coin has only tin lines the same as an old Irish 10p i would like to get a valuation?

It is not impossible that you have a Punt coin struck on an old (large) 10 Pence planchet. The coins are not too different in diameter and you would be amazed at how often this occurs at mints around the world.

Any coin with a "genuine" minting flaw would have some value, above the usual, as a collectible coin.

Genuinely flawed coins are not necessarily known about or documented until somebody turns up with one, since they are an "accident" of the minting process, and have escaped detection during quality control at the mint therefore, a valuation cannot be anticipated.

A reputable coin dealer should be able to identify and confirm the coin as genuine and make a valuation.
