Hi,

I am looking for a gift for my mother in law. I was searching for her birth year of 1945.
I came across an ebay page with a listing of "COIN POPE JOHN PAUL 2 II LIER 50 VATICANO 100 FREE SHIP" The listing shows that the date is 1945.

Can anyone shed some light on this coin?
I have looked high and low for any listing of this coin but only eaby links are found.

Thanks in advance,
Darrell
PS, I'm old but very new a collecting coins ...

Not sure how it could be 1945 and JP II, as Piux XII was Pope in '45. The Vatican did produce coins in 1945. I expect, judging from the seller, that it's some kind of novelty without significant numismatic value, which doesn't mean that it isn't a good gift necessarily.
