The halfpenny (1⁄2d) (Irish: leathphingin) coin was the second smallest denomination of the pre-decimal Irish pound, worth 1⁄480 of a pound or 1⁄24 of a shilling. First issued in 1928 it ceased to be legal tender on 1 August 1969. The coin measured 1.005 inches (25.5 mm) in diameter and weighed 5.66990 grams. The bronze coin was made up of 95.5% copper, 3% tin and 1.5% zinc. This was identical to the British halfpenny as both countries' pounds were pegged until 1979.

Esto era idéntico al medio penique británico, ya que las libras de ambos países estuvieron fijadas hasta 1979. El diseño del reverso fue de Percy Metcalfe, un artista inglés. Al artista se le dio a elegir entre un jabalí, una cerda o un carnero, y se eligió la cerda. El anverso presentaba el arpa irlandesa. De 1928 a 1937, la fecha se dividió a ambos lados del arpa con el nombre Saorstát Éireann dando vueltas. De 1938 a 1969 la inscripción cambió a Éire a la izquierda del arpa y la fecha a la derecha. ​ (es)

From 1928 to 1937 the date was split either side of the harp with the name Saorstát Éireann circling around. From 1938 to 1969 the inscription changed to Éire on the left of the harp and the date on the right. (en)
