| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a three-figure devotional composition commemorating an ecumenical encounter. Seated at left on an ornate throne is Pope John Paul II (Ioannes Paulus II), depicted in papal vestments in a prayerful pose; seated at right on an equally elaborate throne is Archbishop Christodoulos of Athens, vested in hierarchical robes and holding a staff. Standing centrally between them, in higher relief and slightly elevated, is the nimbed figure of Saint Paul (ST. PAULUS), rendered in a Byzantine iconographic style, raising his right hand in blessing and holding a book in his left. The ecumenical motto UT UNUM SINT is prominently inscribed along the lower periphery in large letters, while the legend IOANNES PAULUS II. - ARCHIEPISCOPUS CHRISTODOULOS curves along the upper border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Sovereign Military Order of Malta retains the legal standing to issue coinage despite controlling no sovereign territory — its numismatic authority derives from its status as a recognized subject of international law, with diplomatic relations maintained by over 100 states. This 2005 issue was part of a commemorative series released in the year of John Paul II's death, which occurred on April 2nd of that year. The series documented his life across multiple pieces, giving the Order a rare occasion to issue a thematically unified set rather than a single commemorative.
