The surrounding field features an elaborate decorative border of finely engraved foliage, acorns, and oak leaves interspersed with winged cherubs and the papal coat of arms. The inscription ST. JOHN PAUL II CANONIZATION arcs across the upper field, with the canonization date 27.04.2014 inscribed to the left.
