| Beschrijving keerzijde | Finely modelled bare-headed portrait bust of Pope John Paul II facing slightly left, rendered in frosted cameo relief within a deep recessed oval cartouche. The portrait is framed by an elaborate rectangular border of intricate scrollwork and engine-turned stippled ground, evoking the aesthetic of a postage stamp vignette. Below the decorative frame, the pontifical name appears in facsimile script signature: Joannes Paulus pp. II. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Andorra has issued papal coinage since the 1980s, a practice rooted in the co-principality's unusual constitutional arrangement: the Bishop of Urgell serves as one of two co-princes, giving the Catholic Church a direct governing role unique among European states. John Paul II died in April 2005, making this 2010 issue a retrospective commemorative rather than a regnant portrait — struck five years after his death and four years before his canonization under Francis in 2014.
