Buy The Conclave: 8 Coins of the Popes, AD 32 to the 21st Century (Boxed Collection) – Limited First Edition Online
For more than two millennia, from the days of the Apostles to the modern era, the Bishop of Rome—commonly known as the Pope—has stood as the spiritual leader of the Roman Catholic Church. This meticulously curated collection spans 2,000 years of history, featuring eight genuine coins linked to some of the most iconic popes ever to wear the Papal Tiara.
From St. Peter himself, the first pope and a personal disciple of Jesus, to St. John Paul II, who helped bring down the Iron Curtain, this limited first edition set captures the enduring legacy of the papacy in metal form. Each coin comes boxed, with accompanying historical notes and a certificate of authenticity.
These coins are not reproductions—they are original issues from the time of these remarkable leaders. Ancient and medieval coins may show variation in size and reverse imagery, but every piece is a true artifact from its era.
What’s Inside the Boxed Collection:
St. Peter (A.D. 32–67)
The apostle to whom Christ entrusted the keys to Heaven. Martyred in Rome, crucified upside down. This coin is a bronze prutah, issued under Porcius Festus, a Roman prefect known to Peter himself.
St. Sylvester (A.D. 314–335)
Pope during the reign of Constantine the Great, the first Christian emperor. Under Sylvester, the Council of Nicaea convened, producing the Nicene Creed. This bronze coin bears the image of Constantine I.
St. Gregory the Great (A.D. 590–604)
Renowned for his compassion and theological contributions. Sold church property to feed the hungry during a famine. This bronze coin was struck during the reign of Maurice Tiberius of the Byzantine Empire.
Innocent III (A.D. 1198–1216)
The most powerful pope of the Middle Ages, he wielded influence over monarchs and led the controversial Fourth Crusade. The coin is an aspron trachy, a distinctive “cup coin” featuring the image of Christ, circulated in Byzantium during his reign.
Blessed Pius IX (1846–78)
