Extensive searches across multiple library catalogs (including local, national, and scholarly databases) yielded no evidence of an English translation of Johann Christian Orschall's 'Sol sine veste'. While the work is cited in historical and scientific literature regarding alchemy and the history of chemistry, no complete or partial English translation has been published. The metadata enrichment suggestion of 'Sun Without a Coat' appears to be a misinterpretation or non-existent title.
