1978 witnessed the death of two Pontiffs and the election of a third destined to become the most beloved pope in modern history. Following the death of Popes John VI and John Paul I, Pope John Paul II emerged as the new leader of the Catholic Church and ultimately one of the most influential men in the world. In 2008, to mark the 30th anniversary of the year the world had three popes, the Vatican issued this special mint set of 16 Brilliant Uncirculated coins commemorating all three Pontiffs! Only 500 sets were released, and we have the U.S. exclusive!
