TOXOPHILUS.

19. _Vox Populi._--I have a copper coin in my cabinet (halfpenny size)

which I shall be glad to have explained.

The obverse has a bust laureate in profile to the left, with the letter

"P." close to the nose. The bust appears to be of some popular Irish

leader in 1760, as it is not like either to George II.'s or George

III.'s busts; and the legend "Voce Populi."

Reverse: The figure of Hibernia seated, with an olive branch in her

right hand, and a spear in her left; also a harp at her side. Legend:

"Hibernia." Exergue, "1760."
