Reverse description A left-facing profile bust of Pope John Paul II dominates the field, depicted wearing a papal zucchetto and an ornately embroidered cope, the elaborate decorative scrollwork of the collar rendered in fine detail. The bust is truncated at the shoulder and positioned centrally, conveying a dignified and restrained portrait style. The legend 'JAN · PAWEŁ · II' — the Polish form of the papal name — is inscribed in a curved arc along the lower rim. The mirror-polished proof fields provide strong contrast against the frosted relief of the portrait. The composition commemorates the pontificate of Karol Wojtyła, the first Polish pope.
