Reverse description The reverse presents an abstract modernist composition evoking the architecture and symbolism of justice, featuring geometric angular forms suggestive of a courthouse or judicial scales rendered in dynamic diagonal planes. A stylized eagle's head emerges from the lower left of the composition, partially obscured by the geometric design. Clouds are depicted in the upper background, adding depth to the scene. The legend 'TRYBUNAŁ KONSTYTUCYJNY' arcs along the upper rim, while '15-LECIE ORZECZNICTWA' is inscribed along the lower left, commemorating the 15th anniversary of the Constitutional Tribunal's rulings. The engraver's mark appears in the lower right field.

Additional information

Issued to mark the fifteenth anniversary of Poland's Constitutional Tribunal, established in 1986 under the late Polish People's Republic — an institution created by a communist government that would spend its early years reviewing legislation produced by the very system that built it. The Tribunal gained genuine authority only after 1989, when its rulings became binding without parliamentary override.

Mintage for this issue was 35,000 pieces.
