Comment
coincardInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the two Byzantine brothers, Constantine and Methodius, who are credited with creating the Glagolitic alphabet, the oldest Slavic script. Their work played a significant role in the spread of Christianity among the Slavic peoples, and they are considered saints in the Orthodox Church. The coin's design honors their contributions to Slavic culture and history.
