| Obverse description | Left-facing bust of Pope John Paul II in high relief, depicted wearing a zucchetto and clerical collar. The effigy is rendered in a detailed, sculptural style characteristic of Vatican coinage of the period. The circular legend reads IOANNES PAVLVS II P.M. A. XVIII along the upper periphery, with the Roman numeral date MCMXCVI continuing along the right field. The engraver's signature appears at the lower rim. |
