| Additional information |
Vatican euro cents are minted under a monetary agreement with the EU but issued in quantities so small — typically a few thousand complete sets annually — that virtually none enter circulation. The 2014 issue falls within the sede vacante gap between Benedict XVI's resignation in February 2013 and the first full papal year of Francis, meaning papal portraiture on Vatican coinage shifted mid-series, making 2013 and 2014 transitional years for collectors tracking the portrait sequence.
