The new Vatican euro coin set, the first issued during the pontificate of Pope Leo XIV, draws direct inspiration from the pope's coat of arms, reproduced on the cover with a chalk-effect finish and embossed on an ivory background. A deep blue highlights the inscriptions and key graphic elements, echoing the colours of the two heraldic fields of the papal shield. This same colour combination will become even more prominent in the new packaging design that will accompany future numismatic issues.
