| Aanvullende informatie |
John Paul II's visit to the Dominican Republic in January 1979 was historically significant as the first stop on his first papal foreign trip — just weeks after his October 1978 election. The country was chosen partly because Santo Domingo was hosting the Third General Conference of the Latin American Episcopate (CELAM), giving the visit both symbolic and institutional weight beyond a simple pastoral call.
At 65 grams of sterling silver, this is among the heaviest commemoratives the Banco Central issued in this period. The dies were produced under tight schedule pressure to coincide with the visit itself.
