Description: Mint: Mint Kremnica Denomination: €2 Quality: UNC Issue limit: 1 million Alloy: Base Metal Diameter: 25.75 mm Weight: 8.5 grams Design: Miroslav Hric Box/Capsule: No/No Certificate: No This release is dedicated to the 1150th anniversary of the advent of the mission of medieval monks Constantine and Methodius to Great Moravia. Around 863 they published an Old-Slavic translation of the Bible. This translation was written in the Glagolitic alphabet that they developed themselves, but that later became obsolete. The reverse features the Thessalonian brothers Constantine and Methodius on either side of the symbolic double cross standing on three hills. The cross is held like a Bishop’s crozier, thereby bringing together the symbols of statehood and Christianity, and emphasising the significance of the brothers’ mission, which helped ensure the full sovereignty and legitimacy of Great Moravia — the first Slav state in central Europe. The figure of Constantine is holding a book that represents education and faith, while Methodius is shown with a church to symbolize faith and institutional Christianity.
