5 euro bimetallic coin year 2025 proof version 20h anniversary of the death of St. John Paul II
On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the death of Saint John Paul II, the 5 euro bimetallic coin, here presented in proof version, pays tribute to a Pope who is remembered as a tireless pilgrim, bringing the light of the Gospel to the world. The figure is depicted advancing with a steady stride and open arms, a gesture that is interpreted as expressing welcome and blessing. Behind him, a stylized crowd follows; these are the young people who loved him and the marginalized who found hope in him. This coin does not close an era, but opens it wide: just like the arms of that Pope who, even today, tells us without speaking: “Do not be afraid. Open – indeed, throw wide – the doors to Christ.”
