| Additional information |
Paul VI's pontificate coincided with the Second Vatican Council, which closed in December 1965 — the year before this coin was struck. The Council's reforms generated genuine institutional turbulence, and Vatican coinage from these years reflects a mint administration navigating rapid changes in liturgical and diplomatic identity.
KM#90 belongs to the annual mint set series that the Vatican had refined into a collector-oriented product by the mid-1960s, with circulation strikes becoming increasingly nominal in practice.
