| Reverse description | A large effigy of Pope John Paul II dominates the upper field, depicted in three-quarter view facing left, wearing papal vestments and raising his right hand in blessing. In the lower foreground, a group of figures including men, women, and children are shown gathered around the Pope, rendered in fine relief against a proof-mirrored field. The arc legend 'VISITE DE SA SAINTETE JOANNES PAVLVS II' curves around the upper periphery, with the date '1983' and mint mark 'R' to the lower left. The denomination 'GOURDES . 500' is inscribed along the lower rim. The engraver's signature appears in the lower right field. |
