2022 Vatican €5 18-gm Silver 12 Apostles Peter Proof

Saint Peter Is First Release In Vatican City’s Twelve Apostles Series

The 12 apostles were the closest followers of Jesus Christ. They were also known as the 12 disciples or just “the Twelve” and they were all influential figures in the movement that gave rise to Christianity and helped spread the gospel throughout the world. They’re spreading the Good News again through a series of silver coins released by the treasury department of the Vatican City State. The series, which began in 2022, features coins struck in 18 grams of highly pure 92.5% Sterling silver with extremely small mintages that will have collectors scrambling to make sure they don’t miss out. Here you can secure the first coin in the series featuring Saint Peter.

A Poignant And Symbolic Image Of Saint Peter

The design shows an image of Peter in tears, repenting for having denied Jesus following his arrest during the Last Supper. Next to Peter is a rooster, a symbol of his betrayal for which Jesus prophesied that Peter would deny knowing him three times before the cock crowed. The design also shows Peter holding two keys in his left hand which symbolize the Kingdom of Heaven and the papal authority given to him by Jesus before his crucifixion. The coin’s obverse shows the Papal Crest of Pope Francis.
