Comment
The fact that Dei Gratia was not written down or abbreviated caused quite a stir among the public.
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1911 Canadian silver 10-cent coin is that it was minted without the Latin phrase "DEI GRATIA" (meaning "by the grace of God") on the obverse, which was a departure from the traditional design used on previous coins featuring King George V. This change was made to reflect the growing secularism in Canadian society at the time.
