| Obverse description | Right-facing bust of Pope John XXIII (Ioannes XXIII) in high relief, depicted wearing the papal mozzetta adorned with small decorative elements along its border. The portrait is rendered in a naturalistic style, capturing the Pope's distinctive features with careful attention to drapery detail. The circular legend reads IOANNES XXIII PONT MAX, with the regnal year notation A III (Anno III) completing the inscription around the upper and lower periphery of the field. |
