| Additional information |
John Paul II died on April 2, 2005, triggering a sede vacante period before Benedict XVI's election on April 19. Vatican coin production during that interregnum is a collector anomaly — pieces dated 2005 and attributed to John Paul II were already in preparation, meaning this Leo XIII-reverse cent was struck under one pontificate, released under the transitional chaos of another, and collected almost immediately rather than spent.
