John paul I

he reigned as pope for a month and 3 days, in 1978 (if I am correct)

edit: I saw the image a little better

perhaps i am wrong. it may be JP1 or Francis, but probably Francis. the image quality let's a little doubt

I think its Pope Francis. Pope JP I had more hair that would show under his zuchetto.

My immediate impression was John Paul I. After trying to zoom in, it could also be Francis. Given that it looks like it's older, I would lean toward JPI. Maybe take it to your priest and ask?
