Reverse description A left-facing portrait bust of the Nobel Prize-winning Polish author Henryk Sienkiewicz occupies the central field, rendered in fine relief with naturalistic detail including his characteristic moustache and beard. The name HENRYK SIENKIEWICZ arcs along the upper periphery of the coin in bold lettering, while the birth and death years 1846 - 1916 appear in the lower segment flanked by raised dots. The word PRÓBA (meaning 'trial' or 'pattern') is inscribed vertically in small letters to the right of the portrait, identifying this piece as a trial strike. The deeply mirrored fields give the design a cameo proof appearance.
