| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bold right-facing portrait bust of Józef Piłsudski, rendered in high relief with strong sculptural modelling, occupying the majority of the field. The subject is depicted with characteristic close-cropped hair and a prominent moustache, wearing a military uniform collar visible at the truncation. The circular legend 'RZECZPOSPOLITA POLSKA' (Republic of Poland) runs along the periphery, with 'RZECZPOSPOLITA' to the left and 'POLSKA' to the right, in incuse Latin lettering. The field is otherwise plain, emphasising the commanding portrait. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Poland's postwar monetary system was in freefall by 1922 — the Polish mark, introduced in 1917 under German occupation, was already losing ground to inflation that would become catastrophic within months. The Mennica Państwowa in Warsaw conducted extensive trial strikes in multiple metals during this period as authorities debated which alloys were practical for a collapsing currency. Tin was among the candidates tested and rejected.
The absence of a denominal inscription on this piece — unusual even for a pattern — likely reflects the futility of fixing a face value on anything during a period when purchasing power shifted week to week.
