1. A coated article including a coating on a glass substrate, wherein the coating comprises:

  • a first crystalline or substantially crystalline layer comprising zinc oxide doped with from about 1-30% Sn (wt. %), provided on the glass substrate;

    a first infrared (IR) reflecting layer comprising silver located on the glass substrate and directly over and contacting the first crystalline or substantially crystalline layer comprising zinc oxide doped with from about 1-30% Sn;

    wherein no silicon nitride based layer is located directly under and contacting the first crystalline or substantially crystalline layer comprising zinc oxide doped with from about 1-30% Sn;

    at least one dielectric layer comprising an oxide of zirconium directly contacting the first crystalline or substantially crystalline layer comprising zinc oxide doped with from about 1-30% Sn, the dielectric layer comprising the oxide of zirconium being located between at least the glass substrate and the first crystalline or substantially crystalline layer comprising zinc oxide doped with from about 1-30% Sn;

    an absorber film including a layer comprising silver, wherein a ratio of a physical thickness of the first IR reflecting layer comprising silver to a physical thickness of the layer comprising silver of the absorber film is at least 5;

    1, and wherein the layer comprising silver of the absorber film does not directly contact the first IR reflecting layer; and

    wherein the coated article is configured to have, measured monolithically, at least two of;

    (i) a transmissive Δ

    E* value of no greater than 3.0 due to a reference heat treatment for 12 minutes at a temperature of about 650 degrees C., (ii) a glass side reflective Δ

    E* value of no greater than 3.0 due to the reference heat treatment for 12 minutes at a temperature of about 650 degrees C., and (iii) a film side reflective Δ

    E* value of no greater than 3.5 due to the reference heat treatment for 12 minutes at a temperature of about 650 degrees C.
