Reverse description A bust-length effigy of Pope John Paul II is depicted in three-quarter view, head inclined in a devotional posture, wearing full pontifical vestments including the papal mitre and richly embroidered cope. Behind and to the right of the papal figure, an elaborate architectural and sculptural composition — referencing an ornate Gothic altarpiece or church portal with numerous figural reliefs — fills the background field. The legend JAN PAWEŁ II arcs along the upper left, while the word PRÓBA (trial) appears in the upper right field, identifying this piece as a pattern strike.
