| Obverse description | Left-facing bust of Pope John Paul II occupying the right half of the field, set against a large incuse Latin cross that dominates the entire obverse design. The pontifical year designation 'A.V' and the Roman numeral date 'MCMLXXXIII' appear in the upper right quadrant of the cross, while the papal name and title 'IOANNES PAVLVS II P.M.' are inscribed in the left quadrant. The composition integrates the portrait and cross motifs in a bold, graphic style characteristic of engraver Enrico Manfrini. |
