| Obverse description | Pope John Paul II is depicted standing at a balcony parapet flanked by two children, all three figures shown releasing doves into flight above them. The composition is rendered in high relief with radiating lines in the field suggesting light or divine presence. The pontifical tiara symbol appears in the lower exergue. The circular legend reads IOANNES PAVLVS II P.M. AN XVIII along the upper arc, with MCMXCVI along the lower right arc. |
