This is a threepence coin, and it features a hare (rabbit), which is a symbolt of luck, prosperity, and new beginnings, particularly in times of change. It is no longer legal tender in Ireland since the change to the Euro, but has become a popular collectible. The coin was minted and used for a long time by Ireland, from 1928 to 1969.
The hare, like other animals on the coins of the time, were featured on Irish coins to create a new narrative for the newly formed Irish Free State.
