The 1991 Vatican 200 Lire belongs to the annual divisional sets issued under John Paul II, each year assigned a distinct devotional theme by the Pontifical Commission. By this point in his pontificate, John Paul had already survived the 1981 assassination attempt in St. Peter's Square and was deepening his social teaching through the encyclical Centesimus Annus, published that same year to mark the centenary of Rerum Novarum. Bronzital — an aluminum-bronze alloy developed specifically for Italian and Vatican coinage — replaced earlier compositions during the lira's inflationary decades.
