Greysheet Catalog Details (GSID: 375205)
The Vatican State Mint commemorates the bicentenary of the death of Pope Pius VII with the issue of the 20 euro gold coin. On the reverse of the coin artist Luigi Oldani features a portrait of the Pontiff wearing the tiara. Luigi Barnaba Gregorio Chiaramonti was elected pope in 1800 during a conclave lasting more than three months in Venice. His 23 year long pontificate took place at one of the most difficult times in Church history during the French occupation of Rome. Fully educated in the Benedictine tradition, he was able to protect the rights of the Church from Napoleon’s bullying. After years of exile, he returned triumphantly to Rome in 1814, and Pius VII decided to reconstitute the Society of Jesus. He was a great art lover and proved this in 1806 when he founded the Chiaramonti Museum in the Vatican Museums, featuring works of art stolen by Napoleon and later recovered.
Obverse: Coat of arms of Pope Francis.
Reverse: Face of Saint François de Sales.

About CDN Prices
All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.
CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.
Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.
Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.
CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.
Price movement is indicated for price changes in the last 30 days.
The prices listed in our database are intended to be used as an indication only. Users are strongly encouraged to seek multiple sources of pricing before making a final determination of value. CDN Publishing is not responsible for typographical or database-related errors. Your use of this site indicates full acceptance of these terms.
