Reverse description The reverse depicts the four Evangelists — Saints Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John — arranged in quadrants around a central Chi-Rho (Christogram) symbol within a circle, evoking early Christian iconographic tradition. Saints Matthew and Mark appear in the upper left and upper right quadrants respectively as winged human and lion figures, while Saints Luke and John occupy the lower left and lower right as a winged ox and eagle. Each Evangelist is identified by a small individual inscription in the adjacent field. The circular legend 'WIELKI JUBILEUSZ ROKU 2000' runs along the periphery, commemorating the Great Jubilee of the Year 2000.

Additional information

Poland's "Great Jubilee" series marked the millennial year with a run of Nordic gold two-zloty pieces — the brass alloy introduced in the 1990s that allowed Poland to produce durable, visually distinctive circulation commemoratives at scale. The 2000 jubilee issue was part of a broader Catholic Church-driven observance of the year 2000, reflecting the enormous cultural weight the Church carried in post-communist Polish public life, particularly under the papacy of John Paul II.
