When the Conclave finalized its selection for a new pope on May 8, 2025, the College of Cardinals named Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost as the newly elected head of the Roman Catholic Church. Upon accepting the papacy, Cardinal Prevost adopted the name Leo XIV, marking a historic milestone as the first American ever elevated to the role of Pope. Now, 2025 1 oz Proof Liberia Silver Pope Leo XIV Coins are available online at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
The obverse of the 2025 1 oz Proof Silver Pope Leo XIV Coin features a front-facing portrait of Pope Leo XIV as he appears on the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica. This scene pays tribute to the long-standing Catholic tradition of introducing a new pope with the Latin phrase “HABEMUS PAPAM.” The design immortalizes the moment Pope Leo XIV greeted the faithful for the first time from the iconic balcony overlooking a crowd assembled in St. Peter’s Square.
On the reverse of the 2025 Proof Liberia Silver Pope Leo XIV Coin, you’ll find the national coat of arms of Liberia. Central to the design is a shield bearing a 19th-century sailing ship as it nears the West African coastline, symbolizing the founding of Liberia by freed American slaves in 1822. Atop the shield, a dove clutching a scroll represents peace, while a white banner beneath it displays the country’s national motto.
The selection of Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost as Pope Leo XIV marks a continued change in the form of the pontiff individually. For a continuous stretch of 455 years, from 1523 to 1978, the pope was of Italian descent. Pope John Paul II was the first non-Italian pope in four-plus centuries. Pope Leo XIV is now the fourth non-Italian pope consecutively, the second from the Americas following Pope Francis (Argentina), and the first-ever pope from North America and the United States.
These 2025 1 oz Proof Liberia Silver Pope Leo XIV Coins arrive encapsulated in protective plastic and is accompanied by an official Certificate of Authenticity. These collector-grade coins are struck in proof quality, presenting frosted design elements that contrast with highly reflective, mirror-like fields.
