| Beschrijving keerzijde | Right-facing bust of Pope John Paul II in pontifical vestments, wearing a pectoral cross suspended from a chain, occupying the right half of the field. To the left stands a detailed rendering of the Brandenburg Gate with the inscription 'BERLIN' below it. A ring of alternating crosses and stars frames the inner design along the periphery. In the lower portion, a curved banner bears the papal insignia flanked by crossed keys and tiara, with the number '72' in an oval cartouche at centre, flanked by the visit dates '21.06.-23.06.' and the year '1996'. The legend 'GERMANY' arcs along the upper rim, while 'JOHN PAUL II - PAPAL VISITS' curves along the lower border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John Paul II visited Berlin in June 1996, celebrating Mass at Tempodrom and meeting with both Catholic and Protestant leaders — a visit carrying particular weight given his role in the political destabilization of communist Poland a decade earlier. Niue has long issued commemorative silver under licensing arrangements that have little to do with the depicted subject and everything to do with the collector market, and this piece is a straightforward product of that trade.
