Aanvullende informatie

Benedict XVI's resignation in February 2013 was the first papal abdication since Gregory XII in 1415, and the announcement — made in Latin to a consistory of cardinals — caught the Vatican's own press office completely off guard. Cook Islands struck commemorative issues for virtually every major world event of the 2000s and 2010s, functioning less as a sovereign mint than as a licensing operation for foreign distributors.
