Vatican. Year Set (BU) 2026 "Emissione Speciale" (No reserve price)

Divisional Series 2026 Fior di Conio edition with bimetallic 5 euro coin, 800th anniversary of the death of St. Francis of Assisi - THE FIRST OF POPE LEO XIV - NEW IN THE ORIGINAL FOLDER SOLD BY THE VATICAN SERIES IN HIGH DEMAND FOR STRONG NUMISMATIC INTEREST WARNING – FOLDER ALREADY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT No refunds or returns are accepted as the folder is shipped as issued by the mint. Description: The new Vatican divisional series, the first of Pope Leo XIV’s pontificate, is directly inspired by the pontiff’s coat of arms, reproduced on the cover with a plaster-like “gesso” effect and rendered in relief on an ivory background, while a deep blue characterizes the inscriptions and the prominent graphic elements, recalling the colors of the two heraldic fields of the papal shield. The same chromatic pairing will later be featured, even more prominently, in the new packaging line that will accompany forthcoming numismatic issues. Thus, not a purely aesthetic choice but a true homage and a direct reference to the new pontificate. The coins housed inside present an unprecedented alternation between the pope’s effigy and the papal coat of arms: the effigy appears on the larger cuts, the coat of arms on the smaller ones, in a graphic design without precedent in the history of Vatican divisional coins. The 2-euro coin also contains the distinctive elements of Leo’s coat of arms: the lily, symbol of purity and Marian devotion, and the burning heart pierced by an arrow above an open book, emblem of Augustinian spirituality and the power of God’s Word to transform the human heart. The bimetallic 5-euro coin that completes the set, dedicated to Saint Francis of Assisi on the eighth centenary of his death, depicts the stripping away (the spoliazione), the decisive moment of the Saint’s conversion and the true manifesto of Franciscans spirituality: the abandonment of all possessions, detachment from the past, and total trust in God. With these two issues, the Governatorate of the State of Vatican City aims to celebrate the beginning of Leo XIV’s pontificate through an unprecedented artistic language, capable of combining tradition and innovation.
