Token Ireland Claddagh - Friendship, Loyalty, Love

It is not very likely that these novelty tokens are made in Ireland, but they are certainly Irish through and through. Friendship, loyalty, and love are the sentiments attached to the Irish Claddagh hands-crown-heart symbol, named after the town just outside Galway.

Many different patterns with the Claddagh theme are available. Not really coins, these tokens can be purchased easily for a few US dollars in gift shops. Tokens made of silver or gold will be worth their weight in precious metal.
