Reverse description A bold right-facing portrait bust of Pope John Paul II dominates the central field, rendered in high relief with fine detail to his vestments and papal zucchetto. To the left of the effigy, a depiction of a historic Dominican cathedral facade is visible in the mid-ground. The date 1979 appears in the lower left of the field beneath the cathedral motif. The arc legend REPUBLICA DOMINICANA runs along the upper periphery within a beaded border, while the inscription VISITA DE S.S. JUAN PABLO II arcs along the lower periphery, commemorating the papal visit.
