20 euro copper coin – Art and Faith: El Gallo de San Pedro
The Vatican State Mint continues the “Art and Faith” cycle with the 20 euro copper coin that represents the Rooster of Saint Peter in 2024.
On the reverse of the coin, the artist Daniela Fusco has represented, in the foreground, the rooster of Saint Peter, a bronze statue preserved in the Treasure Museum of the Vatican Basilica, and, in the background, the image of the apostle Peter.
The rooster, which has always been associated with the figure of Peter, evokes the prophetic words of Jesus to the Apostle: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” The episode, present in the four Gospels, refers to the arrest of Jesus, when Peter, full of fear, denies him, pretending not to know him, and then repents and weeps bitterly (Luke 22:54-62). Jesus knows that this humble fisherman will be the rock on which his Church will be built (Mt 16:18). In fact, the artist represents Peter with the keys in his hand, symbols of spiritual authority and the role of guardian of the gates of Paradise: “I will give you the keys to the Kingdom of heaven; and whatever you have bound on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you have loosed on earth will be loosed in heaven” (Mt16:19).
