| Reverse description | The opening of the Holy Door depicted in high relief: a papal figure wearing the tiara strikes open a walled door at right, assisted by an attendant, while a group of kneeling clergy and pilgrims with staffs and crosses approach from the left. Above, an angel descends bearing a lantern, with rays of light emanating from the doorway. The surrounding legend references the Gates of Heaven. |
