20 euros - Acts of the Apostles - The mission in Macedonia, Greece and Asia Minor
Paul, standing in the middle of the Areopagus, said: «Athenians, I see that you are extremely religious in everything. Because, walking and contemplating your sacred monuments, I even found an altar with this inscription: "To the unknown God." Well, what you worship without knowing it I announce it to you ». This is the moment chosen by Antonella Napolione to be represented on the 20 euro gold coin, to follow the cycle of emissions of the narrative of what happened after the Resurrection of Christ.
50 euros - Acts of the Apostles - Paul, witness of Christ
Saint Paul is often portrayed with "the two-edged sword" that allows man to distinguish between good and evil and also with a book in his hand, the "Word of God", an artistic connection that Chiara Principe, in charge of design of the 50 euro coin in gold, has used; as a background, one can see the symbolic lines of the cities of Rome and Jerusalem, where the holy traveler developed his apostolate.
