TOTVS TVVS

What's up plebs?!

Back with another recent addition to my stack, although this one is not as fancy as the last one.

Just another boring coin that I got for around spot price. Let's check it out:

As you can see we have a 500 lire coin issued by the Vatican state, commemorating Ioannes Paulus II Pontifex Maximus aka Pope John Paul II:

Pope John Paul II (Latin: Ioannes Paulus II; Polish: Jan Paweł II; Italian: Giovanni Paolo II; born Karol Józef Wojtyła, Polish: 18 May 1920 – 2 April 2005) was head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of the Vatican City State from 1978 until his death in 2005. source

Clearly, it's a coin that sticks to the basics. A portrait, the local coat of arms, denomination etc.

And it comes with an engraved edge which is always a nice bonus

It reads

+++ TOTVS TVVS +++ M C M L X X I X

This is John Paul II motto (All Your) and date in roman numeral.

Meh, boring.

Anyways, let's see some more photos

When it comes to silver we have 11 g of 0.835 purity. Decent I guess :)

Not much else to say about the coin so I guess this is it for today frens!

Just another boring coin for the stack 🙃

See you soon with more shiny !
