| Obverse description | The upper portion of the obverse depicts a panoramic Siberian wilderness scene rendered in high relief, featuring a flock of migratory birds in flight across a mirror-polished sky field, with a mountain range, coniferous forest, lake, reindeer, and a dog-sled team arranged in successive horizontal bands below. In the lower field, the crowned Polish eagle — the national arms — is centrally positioned, flanked to the left by the date '2004' and to the right by the denomination '10 ZŁ'. The legend 'RZECZPOSPOLITA POLSKA' is inscribed in two lines above the eagle. The mint mark 'mw' appears below the eagle. |
