背面描述	The reverse presents a three-quarter figure of Saint Bartholomew the Apostle, depicted as a bearded elder seated at a writing desk with an open book and quill pen before him, his flowing mantle rendered with selective gold plating that accentuates the drapery folds. At the lower left, a flayed face alludes to the traditional iconographic attribute of Saint Bartholomew's martyrdom by flaying. The legend CITTA DEL VATICANO arcs around the upper field, with BARTHOLOM AEVS inscribed to the right of the figure. The denomination 10 EURO appears in the lower right field, accompanied by the Rome mint mark R and the engraver's signature A. NAPOLEONE.

附加信息	Francis canonized Bartholomew de Las Casas? No — this coin almost certainly commemorates the feast of Saint Bartholomew the Apostle, one of the Twelve, whose martyrdom tradition places in Armenia and whose relics are claimed by both the Basilica of San Bartolomeo in Rome and the Cathedral of Benevento. The Vatican has issued a sustained series of annual saint-themed collector pieces in this gold-plated sterling format, each tied to the pontifical calendar rather than to any singular anniversary.
