Coins of the Papal States
The Papal States used the papal coat of arms as their main coinage from the 16th century until 1866. During this period, gold, silver and copper coins were minted, each with designs depicting religious and papal symbols. In 1866, the Papal States adopted the papal lira, which remained in circulation until the unification of Italy in 1870.
Numismatics of the modern Vatican
Following the Lateran Pacts in 1929, which established the Vatican City State, the Vatican lira was introduced. This currency was pegged to the Italian lira until 2002, when the Vatican adopted the euro as its official currency. The Vatican issues its own euro coins, which are highly prized by collectors due to their limited mintage and unique designs commemorating important events of the Catholic Church and the papacy.
