| Reverse description | A three-quarter-length portrait of Pope John Paul II occupies the right portion of the field, depicted wearing his pontifical vestments including the mitre and holding the papal ferula (pastoral staff) in his left hand while raising his right hand in a gesture of blessing. The effigy is rendered in fine relief with careful attention to the liturgical robes and facial detail. The inscription 'JAN PAWEŁ II', the Polish-language name of the pontiff, arcs along the upper left of the field in bold raised lettering against the deeply mirrored background. |
