| Additional information |
This piece belongs to the Vatican's ongoing apostle series, issued by the Philatelic and Numismatic Office specifically for collector markets rather than circulation. The 2022 Saint Andrew release is the silver-with-gold-plating variant — the "a" suffix in the KM reference distinguishes it from a companion pure silver issue struck to the same specifications but without plating, both released simultaneously as part of the same program.
Andrew is venerated as the patron of Scotland, Russia, and Greece simultaneously — a geographic spread that reflects the contested early medieval missionary traditions attributed to him rather than any documented historical itinerary.
