{{/presale}} {{#promotion_on}}The election of Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost to the papacy on May 8, 2025, marked a new chapter for the Roman Catholic Church. By taking the name Leo XIV, he became the first American pope in the Church’s long history. BGASC now offers the 2025 1 oz Proof Liberia Silver Pope Leo XIV Coin in recognition of this event.
Highlights:
Each 2025 1 oz Proof Liberia Silver Pope Leo XIV Coin comes individually packaged in a plastic capsule and includes a Certificate of Authenticity. These proof-quality coins display frosted elements on highly polished backgrounds.
Obverse
On the obverse of the 2025 1 oz Proof Silver Pope Leo XIV Coin, youll see Pope Leo XIV standing on the balcony of St. Peters Basilica. This scene commemorates the moment the newly elected pope addresses the public with the traditional HABEMUS PAPAM announcement from Vatican City.
Reverse
The reverse side of the 2025 Proof Liberia Silver Pope Leo XIV Coin includes Liberias coat of arms. It features a 19th-century ship sailing toward Africas western coast, symbolizing the return of freed American slaves who founded Liberia. A dove above the shield holds a scroll to represent peace, and the national motto is shown on a banner beneath.
History
Pope Leo XIV’s election reflects a broader shift in the origins of Church leadership. From 1523 to 1978, popes were consistently Italian. That changed with Pope John Paul II. Since then, three more non-Italians have led the Church, including Pope Leo XIV, who is also the first from the United States.
