| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Polish White Eagle (Orzeł Biały), the national coat of arms, displayed facing forward with wings spread, rendered in high relief within a raised central disc set against a recessed annular field. The circular legend POLSKA RZECZPOSPOLITA LUDOWA arcs along the upper periphery, with the date 1973 continuing at the right. The denomination ZŁ 100 ZŁ, flanked by raised dots, appears in large characters along the lower rim. The mint mark MW is present beneath the eagle. The overall design reflects the standard heraldic style of the Polish People's Republic coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
In 1973, the Polish State Mint was developing what would become the circulating 100 Złotych Kopernik series, issued to mark the 500th anniversary of the astronomer's birth. This nickel trial strike — heavier than the cupro-nickel production coins that followed — represents a composition test rejected before the final specification was approved. The Pr218 designation confirms its status as an official essai rather than a pattern proposal, meaning it passed through formal mint evaluation.
Copernicus had long been a politically safe hero for the communist-era Polish government — a figure of undisputed national genius, uncomplicated by ideology.
