The Philatelic and Numismatic Office of the Vatican City State ((イタリア語:Ufficio Filatelico e Numismatico)) is responsible for issuing Vatican postal stamps and Vatican coins. While Vatican stamps may only be used within the Vatican City State and the quantity of euro coins is limited by treaty with Italy (the total value of all coins minted in 2002 was restricted to €310,400),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Euro Vaticano )〕 Vatican coins and stamps serve as an important sign of Vatican sovereignty, and their scarcity and design makes them popular with collectors. Indeed, public interest in Vatican currency and stamps was considered sufficient to justify a Philatelic and Numismatic Museum (''Il Museo Filatelico e Numismatico'') which has been opened as part of the Vatican Museums in 2007.〔(The new Museum )〕 Two special stamps about the museum were issued at the museum opening. Euro coins issued by the Vatican are minted by Italy's Istituto Poligrafico e Zecca dello Stato (Italian State Mint). ==See also== * Postage stamps and postal history of Vatican City * Poste Vaticane * Vatican euro coins * Vatican lira * List of mints * Index of Vatican City-related articles * Outline of Vatican City 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Philatelic and Numismatic Office of the Vatican City State」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
