| Obverse description | Right-facing draped bust of Pope John Paul II wearing a zucchetto and mozetta, rendered in low relief within a broad, unadorned field. The circular legend reads IOANNES PAVLVS II P.M. AN.IX MCMLXXXVII, denoting his pontifical title and the ninth year of his reign, with the date expressed in Roman numerals. The portrait is modelled in a restrained, classical style characteristic of Vatican coinage of this period. |
