2008 Slovenia 2€ — Primož Trubar

The Slovenia 2008 Primož Trubar 2 euro commemorative coin honours the central figure of the Slovenian Reformation. The national side features a profile portrait of Primož Trubar, the author of the first printed book in the Slovenian language, alongside his name and the inscription 'CUDNO JE TO' which translates to 'This is wonderful'. Trubar is widely celebrated for his pivotal role in establishing the foundations of Slovenian literature and national identity during the sixteenth century. By standardising the written language, he provided the cultural framework that allowed the Slovenian people to preserve their heritage through centuries of external influence. His legacy remains a cornerstone of the nation’s intellectual history. This coin was issued in 2008 with a mintage of 1,000,000 pieces.
