Both the Protestant and the Catholic versions are found paired with the same and with different reverse dies. The Catholic version is twice as scarce as the Protestant version. Obverse is the Catholic version of the Lord’s Prayer. Microscopic 57-C etched on the reverse at the bottom above the delta, some die varieties do not have the 57-C. Struck by Los Angeles Rubber Stamp Company, this reverse die was also used for SH 23-8 and 23-10. Found with both a coin and medal orientation. A similar Anillo restrike reverse variety is not cataloged here because it is too small at 25.86mm.
