2 Euro Commemorative Vatican 2010 Priestly Year — obverse of the coin

We return to a coin minted for a religious celebration. In this case, we are talking about a €2 coin that commemorates the Priestly Year.

On the Obverse, there is a scene depicting a shepherd trying to save a sheep from the mouth of a lion. At the top in an arc is the inscription “•VATICAN CITY•” while below, in smaller text, is “PRIESTLY YEAR”.

On the left, we find the year of minting, at the bottom the mint mark, and on the right the initials of the designer and engraver.

Surrounding it are the 12 five-pointed stars representing the European states. On the Reverse, we see the usual side featuring the depiction of Europe.
