Vatican KMS
The **Vatican KMS (Circulation Coin Sets)** are a sought-after collectible for numismatists. Since the introduction of the **Euro** in 2002, the Vatican annually mints a limited number of coins, making them particularly valuable due to their **exclusivity**. Historically, the tradition of Vatican coins began with the **Vatican Lira**, which circulated from 1929 to 2001.
The first Euro coins featured the portrait of **Pope John Paul II**, followed by **Pope Benedict XVI**, and finally **Pope Francis**, who decided not to have his portrait on the coins. Instead, since 2017, his **papal coat of arms** and the designation **Città del Vaticano** have been used.
