2010 Vatican 2 Euro Coin-Stamps Priests' Year Photo

2010 Vatican Stamp-Coin (Philatelic-Numismatic) Cover, in commemoration of the Year for Priests (Sacerdotale, 2009-2010). 2 Euro bimetallic coin depicts a key passage from the Bible in the Book of Amos: "...as the shepherd snatches from the mouth of the lion a pair of legs or the tip of an ear of his sheep...so the Israelites...shall escape..." (Amos 3:12). The image of the shepherd who snatches a lamb from a lion symbolizes the role of the priest as a shepherd of souls. Includes the set of "Anno Sacredotale" stamps, specially canceled on a commemorative cover.
