Comments

(en) According to Christian tradition, Stephen was martyred by stoning, so his iconography often features a palm (the symbol of martyrs), a book (because he was a deacon of the church) and stones.

Both "PROTOMARTYR" and "PROTHOMARTYR" (for first martyr) appear on the legends of coins with Saint Stephen.
