| Beschrijving keerzijde | A circular color appliqué at the center depicts Pope John Paul II dressed in white papal vestments, raising his right hand in a gesture of blessing, with a warm expression on his face. The colored portrait is set within a polished silver-toned annular border. The legend THE LIFE OF POPE JOHN PAUL II curves along the upper periphery in raised letters, while the date 2005 appears at the base flanked by two raised dots. A beaded border frames the entire reverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued the same year Karol Wojtyła died and Joseph Ratzinger was elected, this piece belongs to a wave of Somali commemorative issues from the mid-2000s produced entirely for the collector export market. Somalia's transitional federal government, reconstituted in 2004 after over a decade without a functioning central authority, had no meaningful mint infrastructure — these were contracted through private European minting houses and never circulated domestically.
KM#133 is one of several papal-themed Somali issues from this period, a pattern repeated across dozens of unrelated subjects bearing the Somali name purely as a licensing convenience.
