"Soli Deo gloria" is one of the five Reformers' basic beliefs during the Protestant Reformation. It means "Glory to God alone". Interesting large coin in nice condition. Despite of its large size formally it is still legal tender. This reverse was in use till 1990 and recently two dies of it were discovered. There are a lot of differences between the dies, hundreds of coins were passed to mark a feature, which is easy for attribution.


Die A - narrow ears next to each other.

Die B - wide ears, one behind the other.



Due to the discovery this coin is attributed as Rev. die A, known in use till 1983. See more in the article №2909en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces2909.html of Numista catalog for details.
