| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely engraved figural scene depicting Pope John Paul II, shown three-quarter length to the right wearing his papal vestments and zucchetto, tenderly cradling the face of an elderly nun widely identified as Mother Teresa of Calcutta, who is depicted in her characteristic white and blue-striped habit and holds a rosary. The composition conveys a moment of spiritual intimacy between the two figures, rendered with naturalistic detail against a mirror-polished field. The curved legend JOAN PAU II arcs along the upper border. |
