Pope John Paul II Vatican Stamp Set Lateran Treaty 1979

Issued in 1979 under Pope John Paul II, this historic stamp set commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Lateran Treaty, the agreement that resolved the long-standing "Roman Question" and established Vatican City as an independent sovereign state.

The set includes seven mint condition stamps, each dedicated to a different pope or symbolic element of the Vatican since 1929. With vivid portraits and detailed coats of arms, these stamps celebrate both the Church's spiritual leadership and its political independence.

A compelling piece of philatelic history, this collection marks a key moment in modern Vatican diplomacy and is a must have for collectors of religious or state-related stamps.
