| Beschrijving keerzijde | Detailed architectural view of the facade of the Archbasilica of St. John Lateran in Rome, rendered in high relief against a proof mirror field. The grand Baroque facade by Alessandro Galilei is depicted with its characteristic giant pilasters, central entrance loggia, and crowning statues of Christ and the Apostles along the balustrade. The date '1996' appears to the lower left of the building, the Rome Mint mark 'R' and engraver's signature 'DRIUTTI INC' are positioned below the facade. The legend 'CITTA DEL VATICANO' curves along the upper border, and the denomination 'L. 100000' is prominently displayed in the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Basilica of San Giovanni in Laterano, not St. Peter's, holds the rank of mother church of Rome and of the world — "omnium urbis et orbis ecclesiarum mater et caput" — a distinction that makes its appearance on a Vatican gold issue politically deliberate rather than decorative. The 1996 issue falls within John Paul II's extended jubilee preparation series, a run of annual gold 100,000 Lire coins tied to the approach of the year 2000 and the themes the Vatican assigned to each intervening year.
KM#357 was struck at the Italian State Mint in Rome under contract, as Vatican City has no independent minting facility of its own.
