As we announced on January 15, the Vatican will issue two commemorative 2 euro coins this year, the first dedicated to the "750th Anniversary of the death of Thomas Aquinas" and the second for the 150th Anniversary of the birth of Guglielmo Marconi. .
Today, we have official information from the Vatican regarding the one dedicated to Thomas Aquinas”, a coin whose issue date is July 3.
This year marks the 750th anniversary of the death of Saint Thomas Aquinas (Roccasecca c. 1225 – Fossanova 1274). The Vatican Mint dedicates a commemorative 2 euro coin to this anniversary.
On the national side of the coin, the artist Arianna Ciccone places in the foreground the figure of Saint Thomas dressed in the habit of the Dominican order to which he belonged. His left hand holds a volume of his most important work, the “Summa Theologica,” and the other holds a pen. Above the Saint's chest rises a resplendent sun, a symbol of his great wisdom. Among the various titles that he received, the most widespread in the world is that of "Angelic Doctor", which we see cited below, and which celebrates his exceptional purity of soul and body. In the background, on the left, a lily, a symbol of chastity, and the church of Saint Thomas of Roccasecca, the first religious building in the world built in honor of Saint Thomas Aquinas, proclaimed a saint on July 18, 1323 by Pope John XXII.
67,000 coins in FDC quality will be offered to subscribers to the Vatican issues for €19 plus shipping costs.
9,900 coins in Proof quality will be offered only to some subscribers for €37 plus shipping costs.
The final issuance volume of this coin will amount to a figure yet to be determined, since later the so-called Busta (philatelic-numismatic set that includes one of these coins in BU quality) will be issued.
The official issue date is next July 3, although you must keep in mind that those intended for merchants will be distributed first and then to subscribers.
