| Beschrijving voorzijde | Left-facing draped bust of Pope John XXIII wearing the papal camauro and richly embroidered vestments, engraved with fine detail by Pietro Giampaoli. The circular legend IOANNES·XXIII·P·M· arcs along the upper periphery, identifying the pontiff by his Latin name and title of Pontifex Maximus. The regnal year, rendered in Roman numerals as AN·III (or the appropriate year variant), appears in the lower field beneath the bust. The portrait conveys a naturalistic, dignified likeness in moderate relief against a flat field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John XXIII was elected in October 1958 at age 76, widely expected to be a caretaker pope. Within months he had announced the Second Vatican Council — one of the most consequential institutional decisions of the 20th century. This series spans exactly the years between that announcement and his death in June 1963, making it a de facto document of his abbreviated but transformative pontificate.
Acmonital, a stainless steel alloy developed in Italy, replaced the silver coinage that wartime metal shortages had already made impractical a decade earlier.
