Additional information

This issue commemorates Vera, Nada, and Ljubov — the Slavic equivalents of Faith, Hope, and Love — and their mother Sophia, early Christian martyrs executed under Hadrian in Rome around 137 AD. Their veneration runs deep in Orthodox tradition across the Balkans, and Macedonia's choice to mint them reflects the country's broader project of anchoring national identity to pre-Ottoman Christian heritage during a period of acute diplomatic pressure over the Macedonia naming dispute with Greece.
