| Reverse description | Central polychrome color-applied figure of Miś Uszatek, the beloved Polish animated bear character, depicted in his characteristic yellow jacket and green trousers, raising one paw in greeting. To his left stand two smaller uncolored puppet figures — a rabbit and a pig — set against a garden scene with sunflowers and a picket fence. A film-strip border frames the upper and lower edges of the design, evoking the animated television series. The legend MIŚ USZATEK appears in two lines at upper left within the film-strip frame, and a mint mark is visible at lower right. |

| Additional information |
Miś Uszatek — known in Polish as "Floppy-Eared Bear" — was a stop-motion animated character produced by the Se-ma-for studio in Łódź beginning in 1975, becoming one of the most enduring children's television properties in communist-era Poland. Niue's licensing arrangement for pop-culture silver issues of this period was broadly commercial, pairing the territory's legal tender status with nostalgia-driven collectibles aimed squarely at the Polish market rather than any local circulation purpose.
