On May 8, 2025, the Roman Catholic Church made history when the College of Cardinals elected Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost as the new pope. He selected the name Leo XIV and became the first American to ascend to the papacy. You can now honor this significant milestone with the 2025 Proof Liberia Pope Leo XIV 1/2 Gram Gold Coin, available at Provident Metals.
Highlights:
All 2025 Proof Liberia Pope Leo XIV 1/2 Gram Gold Coins at Provident Metals are packaged in plastic capsules and include an official Certificate of Authenticity. These proof coins have finely detailed, frosted designs paired with bright, mirrored fields.
Obverse
On the obverse of the 2025 Proof Liberia Pope Leo XIV Gold Coin is a depiction of Pope Leo XIV on the balcony of St. Peters Basilica. In keeping with Church tradition, the new pope appears before the public with the words Habemus Papam. This design reflects the exact moment Leo XIV stepped out following his election. Inscriptions include HABEMUS PAPEM, LEO XIV, PONTIFEX MAXIMUS, MAY 8, 2025, and PEACE BE WITH ALL OF YOU.
Reverse
The reverse side of the 2025 Proof Pope Leo XIV 1/2 Gram Gold Coin shows the coat of arms of Liberia. A 19th-century ship sails toward the Liberian coast, symbolizing the arrival of freed slaves who settled the country. Above the scene, a dove holds a scroll to represent peace, and a banner at the bottom shows the national motto. The inscriptions include REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA, 25 DOLLARS, 2025, 0.5 GRAMS, and .999 FINE GOLD.
History
