Beschrijving voorzijde Centrally positioned, the Polish state eagle displayed with wings spread, facing dexter, rendered in a stylised socialist-realist manner without a crown, as befitting the People's Republic period. The eagle occupies the majority of the field, its talons visible at the base. The circular legend reads POLSKA RZECZPOSPOLITA LUDOWA, separated by lozenge-shaped ornamental stops, with the date 1958 appearing in the lower field beneath the eagle, also flanked by stops.

Beschrijving keerzijde Left-facing truncated bust of Tadeusz Kościuszko, the Polish-American military hero and national hero, depicted in late 18th-century attire with a cravat bow at the throat and flowing hair. The denomination 10 ZŁOTYCH is inscribed in large characters along the lower portion of the field, flanked on either side by stylised folk-art floral ornaments. The word PRÓBA, designating this as a trial strike, appears vertically in the right field reading from top to bottom. The engraver's initials KZ are visible in the lower left field.

Aanvullende informatie

Poland's post-war communist government had a complicated relationship with Kościuszko — a hero of both the American Revolution and the 1794 Polish insurrection, he was useful nationalist symbolism but ideologically awkward. This 1958 trial strike belongs to an extended series of pattern and proof issues produced by the Warsaw Mint as the authorities tested designs and compositions before committing to circulating coinage. The "próba" inscription oriented vertically rather than in the conventional horizontal reading is what separates this Fischer Po#P086c piece from its siblings — a minor typographic decision that creates a distinct catalogued variety.
