Rubber Ferrules | Irish, English, Scottish, and Welsh Coin Walking Stick Badges | Harp | Horse | Red Deer | Salmon | Lion | John F. Kennedy | American Eagle | Masonic Coin On new year's day 2002, Ireland, like the other 11 members of the Eurozone, started using Euro notes and Euro coins for cash transactions. Within a few months, the old coins and banknotes in Punts were withdrawn. These coins are fast becoming collector's items. Our coins have been expertly curved by hand to fit as badges on walking sticks. Limited numbers available. Rubber ferrules -- an easy to fit attachment in a assortment of sizes to fit most walking sticks or canes. The black rubber studded pattern on the bottom provide additional grip to reduce the likelihood of slipping. The rubber tips can be slipped onto the end of your walking stick. We recommend placing these rubber tips over the existing metal or rubber ferrules that come with our sticks. |
