| Obverse description | Right-facing bust of Pope John Paul II wearing a zucchetto and papal vestments, rendered in high relief with finely detailed portraiture. The circular legend along the upper periphery reads IOANNES PAVLVS II P.M. A. XVIII, with the Roman numeral date MCMXCVI continuing along the lower right. The composition fills the field in a bold, naturalistic style characteristic of Italian medallic engraving of the period. |
