The twenty-sixth World Youth Day brought together young Catholics from many countries for prayer, celebration, and a renewed commitment to Christian faith. Its theme emphasized being rooted and built up in Jesus Christ and remaining firm in faith, providing the event with a clear spiritual focus. The coin belongs to a tradition initiated by Pope John Paul II in 1985, followed by the first diocesan observance the following year. Several young people carrying flags form the central image, conveying movement, diversity, and communal enthusiasm. The event emblem and the inscription “XXVI G.M.G.” identify the anniversary gathering, while the year and Vatican marks complete the design.
