Comment

Saint Paul is often portrayed with the “two-edged sword”, which allows one to distinguish between good and evil, and also with a book in his hand, the “Word of God”, an artistic link highlighted by Chiara Principe, chosen by the Vatican City State Mint for designing the 50 euro gold coin. In the background, we can see the symbolic line of the cities of Rome and Jerusalem, where the Saint traveler primarily carried out his apostolate comes timeless, and therefore eternal.
