Reverse description The reverse presents a three-quarter length portrait of Pope John Paul II in full papal vestments, including a mitre and embroidered cope, facing slightly to the right. The Pope is depicted raising his right hand in a gesture of blessing while holding a papal ferula (processional cross) in his left hand. The inscription 'JAN PAWEŁ II' arcs across the upper field, while the word 'PRÓBA' (trial/pattern) appears to the right in the lower field, confirming the coin's pattern status. The portrait is rendered in a naturalistic, medallic style with fine relief detail.
