| Reverse description | A finely modeled right-facing bust of Pope John Paul II occupies the central field, depicted wearing ornate pontifical vestments with elaborately engraved decorative motifs on the mozzetta. The portrait is rendered in high relief with strong naturalistic detail, capturing the Pope's facial features with precision. The engraver's signature 'WELZ' appears at the lower left of the bust. The circular legend 'JOHANNES PAUL II. IN ÖSTERREICH' runs along the upper and lateral periphery, framed by a decorative border of small crosses. The date '1988' is inscribed at the base of the coin, flanked by small ornamental stars. |
